Mission and Ministry Council

Dear Brothers and LaSallian Colleagues,

I am happy to announce that the Mission & Ministry Council is now functioning in our District.  The Mission and Ministry Council on the NOSF District is established in response to Propositions 4, 5 and 6 of the 43rd General Chapter.

• The Mission and Ministry Council will encourage, sustain and evaluate new forms of collaboration and association, which will enable those who implement them to find new forms of commitment in the educational service of the poor.
  • From Proposition 4, 43rd General Chapter

• The Mission and Ministry Council, in which all participate with a deliberative vote, will be responsible for the Lasallian educational Mission.
  • From Proposition 6, 43rd General Chapter

• New Orleans-Santa Fe District Chapter XIII embraced the directives of the 43rd General Chapter, concerning the Mission & Ministry Council are working on its By-Laws and will meet with Brother Superior General on Feb. 5, 2005, at De La Salle in Lafayette, LA.
  • From Proposition 6, 43rd General Chapter

I am very grateful the Brother Richard Kovatch for all the ground work that he did last year to prepare District Chapter XIII for its decisions concerning the Mission and Ministry Council.  Also, I thank Brother Jeffrey Calligan for making this Council a reality in our District.  In addition, I am grateful to the Brothers and LaSallian Colleagues who have agreed to serve on the Council.

Fraternally,

Bother Louis Welker, FSC
