Brothers' Task Force meets

Continuing work to promote vocation


Members of the CMSM Brothers' Task Force at their June 16-17 meeting.

The Conference of Major Superiors of Men (CMSM) Brothers’ Task Force met at St. Mary’s Benedictine Abbey, Morristown, N.J., from June 16-17. This unique initiative, consisting of representatives from four collaborating organizations (CMSM, NRVC, Religious Formation Conference, and Religious Brothers Conference) was established by CMSM to highlight and promote the life and vocation of the religious brother within the church. 

Discussions primarily focused on the formation of religious brothers and ways to commemorate the Vatican’s anticipated letter on the vocation of the religious brother, which is expected to be released in the upcoming Year of Consecrated Life. Father John Pavlik, O.F.M. Cap., CMSM executive director, also shared with the group the results of the April CMSM executive committee meeting with Pope Francis. Representing NRVC on the Brothers' Task Force was Executive Director Brother Paul Bednarczyk, C.S.C. and Brothers Jonathan Beebe, C.S.C. and Patrick Douglas, S.J.
