The Lasallian Spirit
The Lasallian Spirit may be expressed in different ways but as with any religious spirit, it is based on the Great Commandment to love God and to love our neighbour. De La Salle himself in his Rule for the Brothers of his Institute put it this way:
The briefest summary then of the Lasallian spirit is of FAITH and ZEAL. The Brothers and their collaborators attempt to enter into this spirit and to spread it through their mission.
The Lasallian Family
The Lasallian Family includes all those who contribute in one way or another to the Lasallian Educational Mission – the Brothers, Teachers, Students, Parents, Alumni, Patrons and well-wishers.
