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

Forty-four brothers residing at the Marist International Center in Nairobi, Kenya, renewed their temporary vows on Aug. 26.
They recommitted themselves to living as Marist Brothers for another year during Mass, which was presided by Father Joseph Karbo.
During this profession, they entered into their second, third and fourth years of consecration as well as in their years of professional studies and formation.
They reside at the Marist International Center (MIC) and study at the Marist International University College (MIUC).
Brother Albert Nzabonaliba, superior of the MIC, received the vows on behalf of superior general Brother Ernesto Sánchez.
There are 76 brothers at the community of the Center, known as the MIC.
It currently has 67 brother students, which come from five administrative units: the district of West Africa, and the provinces of Madagascar, Southern Africa, Nigeria, and East Central Africa.
There are 22 brothers studying in the first year, 17 in the second, 18 in the third and 10 in the fourth.
The MIC now has nine formators who are accompanying the young brothers.
