	Edmund Rice - Founder
		Fortunately the Christian Brothers were not suppressed and by Edmund's death on 29 August 1844, Christian Brothers were educating boys in Ireland, England and Australia (Sydney).
		Currently 1,700 Christian Brothers are educators and carers of the poor in 28 countries around the world.
		Edmund had given his Brothers as their motto a text from the Book of Job that had meant so much to him in his life: "The Lord has given, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord forever".

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Christian Brothers
		The Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools is a society of male religious approved by the Church, but not taking Holy orders, and having for its object the personal sanctification of its members and the Christian education of youth, especially of the children of artisans and the poor.
		Under the administration of Brother Timothée successful negotiations resulted in the legal recognition of the institute by Louis XV, who granted it letters patent, 24 September, 1724; and in virtue of the Bull of approbation of Benedict XIII, 26 January, 1725, it was admitted among the congregations canonically recognized by the Church.
		For the Church of France this was the spring of a new era; for the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools it was a resurrection.

	Christian Brothers tend a wider flock - Chris McGillion - www.smh.com.au
		As some brothers would eventually admit (and, to their credit, rectify in new and largely unsung ministries to troubled youth) their congregational culture had departed from their founder's ideal which was to treat children with dignity and respect.
		In 1993, one of the biggest class actions in Australian legal history was mounted against the Christian Brothers when 240 writs were filed in the NSW Supreme Court claiming damages for alleged sexual and physical abuse by brothers and their lay employees across the country.
		Christian Brothers' schools will continue to operate (there are 10 run by the order in NSW and two more with which it is associated) and lay people will carry on much of the work started by the brothers.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Christian Brothers of Ireland
		From the begining the efforts of the brothers there have been very successful, and through the zeal and energy of the Benevolent Irish Society there are now five large institutions under their management.
		From Gibrater to New Zealand and from Australia to Newfoundland, the brothers had carried the standard of Irish monastic education, when, in 1886, Cardinal Simeoni conveyed to the superior general of the wish of the Holy Father that they should extend their influence to India.
		The schools of the Irish Christian Brothers are of many types, representing divers phases of educational work, primary, secondary and industrial, with orphanages and schools for the deaf and dumb.

	RTE News - Christian Brothers dispute abuse evidence
		The Christian Brothers have disputed evidence in relation to abuse at some of their institutions, including the Letterfrack Industrial School in Galway that featured in several television reports on the subject.
		Brother David Gibson said evidence has come to the order's attention that some complaints against the Christian Brothers may have been motivated by the offer of redress.
		Brother Gibson said the Christian Brothers were alarmed at the possibility that some brothers who taught for only a year in industrial schools like Letterfrack and later went on to important jobs were now being accused of child abuse.

	Christian Brothers College (CBC) High School harnesses technology to boost education mission
		When Christian Brothers College (CBC) High School in St. Louis, Mo., opened the doors to its new state-of-the-art facility to inaugurate the 2003–2004 school year, a $6 million investment in new technology was leveraged to dramatically change how the school educates its students.
		For 150 years, Christian Brothers College (CBC) High School in St. Louis has built on the spirit of innovation that the French Catholic priest St. John Baptist de La Salle introduced to the field of education in the 17th century.
		So it was not completely out of character for the CBC school administration (run by the De La Salle Christian Brothers, a Catholic order) to make technology a centerpiece of its new facility.

	O Brothers, Where Art Thou? - Today's Christian
		Nearly all the church groups, Bible studies, singles groups, and Christian workplaces I've been a part of over the years have been populated by lots of single women and noticeably (and frustratingly) fewer single men.
		I kid you not, when I was in InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at the secular university I attended years ago, one of our recurring prayer requests was for more men to join our community (for their benefit as well as for ours!).
		But what's startling is not just the gender disparity among Christian adherents; it's also the difference between men who believe and those who are actually active in their belief.
