Book excerpt: The story of St. John Baptist de la Salle and of the Christian Brothers, told simply and without flourish. It is the story of a man set, all unknowingly, at a work of which he had never dreamed, and then catching fire and pursuing that work in the face of the most distressing odds: he was abandoned by friends; betrayed by those whom he trusted; unjustly dishonoured; threatened with imprisonment; faced with persecution. Yet never did he flinch or falter in the pursuit of his ideals. His faith in God's providence was absolute--and that faith was always rewarded.

CHAPTER XVI PICTURES IN LITTLE The Saint's Personal Appearance ST. JOHN BAPTIST DE LA SALLE was a man somewhat above the middle height, with lofty forehead and bright blue eyes. His complexion, fair in his youth, had become almost swarthy in consequence of his exposure to all kinds of weather in the course of his long and frequent journeys on foot through all parts of France. His abundant brown hair had turned prematurely white. His nose was long and regular; his mouth well shaped, the lips full and slightly prominent and habitually shaped into a kindly smile. His bearing was at once dignified and graceful. His health had been delicate in his youth, but his regular life and his force of will contributed to give him a vigorous constitution. During his last years he suffered intensely from a sore on his knee on which some of the ablest surgeons of Paris and Rouen exercised their skill in vain. Sometimes we get the notion that the saints in daily life resembled the saints we see depicted in stained-glass windows and in idealized holy pictures. We think of them as men who always had the whites of their eyes turned upward and who had faces that absolutely could not ripple into smiles. This impression is very misleading, notably so in the case of the founder of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. Everything in the personal appearance of St. de la Salle was gentle and peaceful, because his soul was always in union with God; but everything was likewise winning and attractive. He had the alertness and vigor of the true teacher, and the personal magnetism always found in leaders of men. He inspired love, not fear; and both Brothers and boys were always glad to go to him with their doubts and troubles and difficulties. His Rules of Life Earnest...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of St. John Baptist De La Salle: Founder of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools Today, popular education, put by the State within the reach of all, is hailed as an accepted standard of modern progress and a pledge of civic liberty and of social welfare. If this be so, then our Saint was far in advance of his day and should be heralded a benefactor of the plain people, because of the entire consecration of himself to the training, religious and secular, of their children.

Download or read book The Work is Yours written by Luke Salm and published by Christian Brothers Conference. This book was released on 1996 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considered to be the best popular biography of Saint John Baptist de La Salle in English, this work incorporates modern research to complement the narratives of the original biographers to provide an illuminating background on the life and charism of the Founder of the Christian Schools and the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. This biography sheds new light on the origins of enduring elements of the Lasallian charism--reliance upon Divine Providence and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, spirituality grounded in educational ministry, providing a human and Christian education for young people, especially the poor, application of innovative concepts in schools and other educational projects, and ministry of the laity in the Church. The title comes from a prayer often said by the saint, Domine, opus, tuum--"O Lord, the work is yours."

Download or read book To Touch Hearts Pedagogical Spirituality and St John Baptist de La Salle written by George Van Grieken FSC and published by George Van Grieken FSC. This book was released on 2011-03-25 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work addresses Lasallian pedagogical spirituality, defined as the dynamic integration of foundational convictions, basic operative commitments, and consistent practices permeating the teaching dimensions of schools that claim the heritage of St. John Baptist de La Salle and the Brothers of the Christian Schools. The dissertation examines the content of Lasallian pedagogical spirituality and proposes measures for realizing its vitality within Lasallian school life. Particular pedagogical characteristics, components of an overall pedagogical spirituality, are present in the original charism of St. John Baptist de La Salle. The basic operative commitments that underlie those characteristics ought to be integrally realized in a pedagogy that claims to be Lasallian and wholly incorporated in the formation of Lasallian educators. There are three sequential parts to the dissertation: 1) an overview of the St. John Baptist de La Salle's context and personal history, 2) an overview of his literature followed by an analysis of aspects of Lasallian pedagogical spirituality evidenced in that literature according to five pedagogical elements: the teacher, the student, the teacher/student relationship, the activity of teaching, and the school in general, and 3) a contemporary articulation of the Lasallian basic operative commitments that characterize his spirituality today, along with their implications for the formation of Lasallian educators Extrapolating from the life and writings of De La Salle, ten Lasallian operative commitments are proposed. The commitments are presented in the form of attributes that may be applied to Lasallian institutions and their pedagogical components: 1) centered in and nurtured by the life of faith, 2) trusting providence in discerning God's will, 3) with creativity and fortitude, 4) through the agency the Holy Spirit, 5) incarnating Christian paradigms & dynamics, 6) with practical orientation, 7) devoted to education, accessible and comprehensive, 8) committed to the poor, 9) working in association, 10) expressing a lay vocation. The dissertation concludes by presenting teacher formation structures and strategies for introducing Lasallian operative commitments and by providing a Lasallian Mission and Vision Statement.
