Although not very much represented on this website, the Marist Brothers (F.M.S.) are very involved in passing on the Marist Spirituality to the young people through the schools and different programs. Visit http://www.champagnat.org/en/230000000.asp

To know about the Marist Way at Marist School, check out the Marist School’s website www.marist.com/maristway, or pull up the Marist Way link about “Marist Way” under “About Marist.”)
We are in planning stages for next year but here are a few recent touches:
Ø We’re getting ready to start a marist spirituality blog here – marist.com/maristwayblog, but I wonder if there is a way I can link that in with your site?
Ø I have a class of students studying Marist spirituality (in its 4th offering, 80 students have taken the course over the past 3 years)…
Ø The Mens and Womens Bible Studies, inspired by Marist spirituality, have been growing and going strong (Jaime can comment more on the Men)
Ø An evening series over the winter on Marist spirituality (mildly attended) will be offered again next year 3 times throughout the course of the school year…however, we are piloting a small group from that evening to meet in the evenings, combining efforts with those alumni that attended a recent retreat…
Ø This summer, we are going to publish a “Resource Notebook” on Marist spirituality that will be accessible to all…just an edited compilation/summary of some of the themes and sources covering Marist spirituality in a one- stop notebook…
Ø And, some initiative on VOCATION AWARENESS and DISCERNMENT are forthcoming…
