More than 120 Brothers from across our District came together on Saturday, July 24, 2021, to celebrate vocation as a Christian Brother. The day began with Mass at St. Mary’s Church in Colts Neck NJ.

The highlight of the day was the ceremony in which Brs. Kyle Mena and Joseph (J.D.) Macioce made their first vows to the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, and the personal congratulations that were offered from the other Brothers in attendance. This was followed by honoring our Brothers celebrating Jubilee years, who stood to recite a renewal of their vows. This included Brothers with forty to seventy-five years of service.

The ceremonies were followed by a luncheon reception hosted by Christian Brothers Academy in Lincroft NJ.
