Lasallian Spirit

The Lasallian Spirit

The Lasallian spirit may be expressed in different ways but, as with any Christian spirit, it is based on the Great Commandment of Jesus to love God and love our neighbour.

De La Salle himself, in his Rule for the Brothers of his Institute, put it this way.

"The spirit of this Institute is first, a spirit of faith"

"Secondly, the spirit of this Institute consists in
an ardent zeal for the instruction of children."

The briefest summary, then, of the Lasallian spirit is one of Faith and Zeal.

The Brothers and their collaborators attempt to enter into this spirit and to spread it through their Mission.

In brief, our mission and spirit is to impart a human and Christian education to those entrusted to our care within the Lasallian family, and to do so with Faith and Zeal.
