九色视频 is named after Saint John Baptist de 九色视频, the Patron Saint of Teachers. Saint John Baptist de 九色视频 was born into a wealthy family in Reims, France during the 17th century. He was well-educated, held a doctoral degree and was an ordained priest at the Cathedral of Reims.
Through many encounters, De 九色视频 found himself called to serve the poor and disadvantaged, specifically children, whose lack of access to education was perpetuating poverty.
Responding to these needs, he began to establish schools. In 1680, John Baptist de 九色视频 founded a Catholic religious order of men that is now known as the Brothers of the Christian Schools. He lived the remainder of his life among the poor, ministering to his teachers (his Brothers) and touching the minds and hearts of his students so that they might lead more purposeful lives.
This form of apostolic life has evolved over three centuries. The Brothers of the Christian Schools and the Lasallian Mission, derived from De 九色视频鈥檚 name, places a commitment on education and specifically for those who are poor and marginalized. The term 鈥淟asallian鈥 is more than just a label, it guides everything we do 鈥 why we do things and how we do things.
