Welcome to the site of the Institute of the Marist Brothers of the Schools (FMS - Fratres Maristae a Scholis)
We Marist brothers are religious consecrated to God, and we follow Jesus in the way that Mary did. We live in community and dedicate ourselves in a special way to the education of children and young people, with a preference for those who are the most neglected.
The Marist Brothers are in 79 countries on five continents. Using this map we invite you to take a trip around the world and see where we serve.Read more

The eighth week of formation (25-30 of June 2018) for the third group of candidates of the Program LaValla200> began with a presentation of Br. Valdicer Fachi on practical questions of the program (Visa, travel insurance, health plan, personal money, among other things), so that the participants can go to international communities. He also presented a Memorandum, which contains important information on responsibilities of the Institute, of the participants themselves and also of the Marist Provinces of origin.
After that all were invited to draw a personal synthesis of everything they have lived in San Martino a Monte. Each one presented this synthesis in a particular own way: Power Point, music, drawing, poetry, etc. – the principal things learnt and their reflections throughout the formative process. During Thursday 28, the Fraternities celebrated their two months of experience of shared life, they met to recall the intercultural lived experience, to mutually thank one another for the life they had shard and to ask for pardon for any failures committed during this journey together.
Friday was the day for cleaning the common spaces in San Martino a Monte and the organization of the journey to L’Hermitage (France), The participants lived a week of retreat and had an encounter with the Superior General, Br. Ernesto Sánchez, who will send each one to his/her new mission place.
