Foundation Stones

Note. Rushing to ready for the trip to Esopus after a brief "pit stop" at home following Camp Champagnat, I was not able to offer s slice of bread to honor the Trinity nor all Fathers. I apologize and offer belated good wishes and congratulations to fathers on their special day. May the love of the Trinity continue to fill them with love and devotion to their families.

Here in Esopus, several young men will spend this week on the Foundation Stones of Jesus, St. Marcellin, Mary, the brothers also attending and one one another. They will experience what it is to live, pray, work and recreate in community with the hope that this time together will help them discern further if being a Marist Brother is their calling. These are young men of goodwill who have had positive experiences already in their student days at Marist Schools, so they come with a good foundation, upon which we hope to build. We place them and this week in the hands of Jesus and Mary and ask that the Holy Spirit guide and enlighten all participants.
