Our History

 

Blessed be God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

who has blessed us

with all the spiritual blessings of heaven in Christ.

He chose us in Christ ...

to live through love in his presence ...

He stamped us with the seal of the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians1:3-4; 13

 

 

 

 

We are (brothers) called in faith by a loving God to a deep relationship with Jesus and with our brothers in a religious community founded by Blessed Edmund Rice.

 

We are gifted with the charism of Blessed Edmund our Founder, and we are responsible for nurturing it.  We recognize that this charism is shared by others who draw inspiration from Blessed Edmund.

 

We are sent by the Holy Spirit to be signs of God's love and compassion for all our brothers and sisters, but especially the poor, the powerless and the oppressed.
