Marist Archives are a series of stories. The stories are about the Brothers who left the safety of their homes and native countries to form what is now the Marist Brothers of the United States. The stories tell us about the hardships they experienced; the stories tell us about the tough times they went through establishing the many ministries in the new land; the stories tell us about the determination, the joys, the camaraderie that are part of the history of the Marist Brothers in the United States.
As these pages develop and grow, it is our hope that these stories will come alive and give you a glimpse into the life of the early Brothers. For information to experience these stories, contact Mr. Mario Cesareo, the Marist Brothers Archive Administrator.
