One hundred and eighty Marist Brothers from across Australia gathered at St Joseph’s College, Hunters Hill, last week to discuss their future as they move towards forming a single new province in December this year.
There are currently 170 Marist Brothers in the Sydney province, which stretches from Cairns to Canberra, and 80 in the Melbourne Province, which covers the rest of Australia.
In forming one province, the Brothers will look to spread the administration across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
Sydney Provincial Br Jeff Crowe said coming together as one province was the “natural step going forward” into the 21st century.

Brother Charles Howard, who was our Superior general from 1985 to 1993, passed away on Saturday 14 January 2012 in Campbelltown (Australia). He was 87 years old.
