Welcome to the site of the Institute of the Marist Brothers of the Schools (FMS - Fratres Maristae a Scholis)
We Marist brothers are religious consecrated to God, and we follow Jesus in the way that Mary did. We live in community and dedicate ourselves in a special way to the education of children and young people, with a preference for those who are the most neglected.
The Marist Brothers are in 79 countries on five continents. Using this map we invite you to take a trip around the world and see where we serve.Read more

A spirituality programme in the French language for the brothers of mid-life started at Manziana on the 21st January and will finish at the Hermitage on the 21st June 2007.
There are eleven brothers who are participating, coming from three Provinces: Hermitage (3), Madagascar (4) and East Central Africa (4). A chaplain, a Marist Father (Canadian) provides the service of Eucharistic celebrations.
The animation team is composed of Brothers George Fontana, Antonio Rieu Rieu and Antoine Kazindu.
The programme will be an opportunity for each participant to take the time to listen, reflect, share and pray in order to renew his consecration and his commitment in the service of the Kingdom. The effort of each person to open his heart to the repeated calls of God and to centre his life on Christ will lead him to live Marist religious life with a great deal more enthusiasm, joy and love.
