Reflection
Let them always bear in mind that they belong by a gracious
choice to the family of the blessed Mary, Mother of God, from
whose name they are called Marists, and whom they have chosen
from the beginning as their model and their first and perpetual
superior.
To be a Marist
is to be called and chosen,
through a love freely bestowed on us,
to live the Gospel as Mary did,
in a Society which bears her name.
Call
to mind people known to you who witness to a loving dedication
to the needs of others in their lives.
Remember
now those people and concerns that are dear to you and entrust
them to God.
