We Remember We Celebrate We Believe Dear Members of the Marist Family, This past year marked the 125th anniversary of the Marist Brothers’ presence in the United States, and the theme chosen for this very special occasion—“We Remember, We Celebrate, We Believe”— continues to resonate with us Marists as we look to the future. This special anniversary was also the theme of this year’s Annual Fund. Remembering is an innately human activity. How often have we been told a story, heard a grandparent reminisce, or cried over a loved one who has died? Don’t we all remember those major milestones in life: falling in love for the first time; a high school victory on the football field; a 21st birthday celebration; a marriage; the birth of a first child; the day I received my first communion or was confirmed or professed vows as a religious. All memories are important because they evoke certain feelings and constitute who we are. They “root” us in our lives and allow us to face our future in hope. During this past year, the Brothers had the opportunity to remember 8 | 2012 MARIST ANNUAL NEWSLETTER and honor our past—the faithfulness of those Marist Brothers and partners who came before us. It is on their shoulders that we stand so as to see a future to which God is calling us. We were also invited to celebrate the growth of the Marist vision which includes our Brothers, our families, other religious and you, our Lay Marists, ministering in grammar schools, high schools, universities, and summer camps—making Jesus Christ known and loved to well over 16,000 young people. And yet, sometimes it is not enough just “to remember” or “to celebrate;” we must also believe. As Marists, we believe that Mary, the First Disciple of Jesus and Our Good Mother, has not nor will not abandon us – or our work – because, as Saint Marcellin reminded us, it is “her work” that we do. Today, together, now and in the future... “We Remember, We Celebrate, We Believe...” Please know that the Marist Brothers remember your generous support which has strengthened our mission; we celebrate and value your commitment in “making Jesus Christ known and loved” through the Christian education of youth, and we believe that this wonderful mission, handed over to us by Saint Marcellin Champagnat, will require new Brothers and Lay Marists who will dare to lead us into the new lands of our future with Mary and Marcellin as our models in following Jesus Christ. We must believe that we will be strengthened and encouraged to live the Marist dream, trusting in God’s abundant blessings. For all that you have done for us, know that the Marist Brothers are grateful. Please be assured of my good wishes and prayers for you and for your loved ones, and may God bless you always! Sincerely, Br. Ben Consigli, FMS Provincial
