Vocation Fair November 2006 at
Mary by the Sea High School
in San Pedro, CA.
Brother
Benedict on right and Brother Alphonsus on left explaining the
history and charism of the Patrician Brothers. Vocational
brochures were distributed to the students and a power point
presentation was available on a laptop computer. The students
were very attentive and interested in learning more about a vocation as a brother.
Fourteen congregations made presentations to the students, and we
were the only community of brothers. Brother Benedict spoke to
the entire student body explaining his calling to the vocation.
A similar
presentation was made at Junipero Serra High School in Gardena.
The brothers are making an active effort to
recruit young men in California.
