Marist Brothers
The Marist Brothers, an international Religious Congregation of the Catholic Church, came to Australia in 1872 and established schools in most Australian States. They presently number over 300 Brothers.
One hundred and thirty years later the Brothers continue to work with young people, in schools as teachers and administrators, in retreats and camps for young people, and in many other areas of ministry.
They serve the poor and the needy in welfare ministries, work with young adults, in outreach programs, Aboriginal communities and missions in Papua New Guinea, Bougainville, Cambodia, Solomon Islands, India, and East Timor.
The Marist Brothers work in 76 countries around the world.
