Since its origins, community life has been the constitutive element of religious life: brothers are a means to one another’s holiness. Brothers see themselves as part of a brotherhood which advances God’s kingdom, rather than as isolated missionaries. A religious community is a spiritual family: religious brothers live together, work together, and die together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1548359215152-D49JY9WM869127MRV82Y/norcia%2Btwo%2Bmonks.jpg Home - To Live for God Alone This radical calling involves taking on the three evangelical counsels, that is, professing vows of chastity, poverty, and obedience. By chastity, a religious brother vows himself to lifelong celibacy so that God can be his first and only love. By poverty, a brother gives up all personal possessions: everything he has is owned in common with the community. By obedience, a brother submits to his community’s rule of life and takes on whatever mission his superior directs. The Church has long understood the sacrifice of the evangelical counsels to be an extraordinary means of spiritual growth, because it freely adheres to the way of life Jesus himself adopted. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547140963055-5UIXE7172N7GE9VU23UM/cfrs.jpg Home - A Radical calling The vocation of religious life is perhaps the most radical calling in the Church. Jesus expressed great esteem for those “who have renounced marriage for the kingdom of heaven,” and the Church offers religious life to men who want to live for God alone. Not all men are called to this adventure, but “whoever can accept this ought to accept it” (Mt 19:12). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547140465885-DXW5PGDM1SPRU68OAF3Z/brothers%2Bof%2Bhope%2Bpraying.jpg Home - Lay Communities Lay communities are composed almost exclusively of brothers. That is, the brothers are not usually ordained to the priesthood or diaconate. Because of their lay consecration, brothers are typically freer to serve the church outside of the church. They often work as chaplains, teachers, evangelists, and as ministers to the poor. In contemplative communities they often undertake manual work such as farming or craftsmanship. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1546287338311-GYI3OTDJVV4V88C54Y0G/Young_Monk_Praying_on_the_New_Mount_Carmel.jpg Home - Contemplative Monks Brothers that are members of contemplative religious communities are called monks. They live in a monastery, and do not ordinarily leave the monastery’s grounds. They adopt a highly regular pattern of life, which includes a great deal of common prayer. They eat their meals together, often in silence. When not in prayer and study, monks perform duties that provide sustenance or maintain the monastery. This life of austerity and penance allows the brothers to grow in deep communion with God; through prayer and sacrifice, they powerfully intercede for the Church and the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1548359466947-NQMAPPWHRRQEEW3G3R7A/brothers+of+hope+campus+ministry.JPG Home - Active Brothers Active communities of brothers, often called friars, live and pray together, just like monks, but during the day they enter the world to directly advance the kingdom of God. Religious priests often serve in sacramental roles similar to diocesan priests, while religious brothers take on many apostolates outside of parish life: chaplains, teachers, counselors, evangelists, and minsters of the poor. While active brothers still pray frequently, they understand their mission as an important part of their prayer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547140490366-C4D7GFPGGDVIBJ6IQ4VP/jesuits.jpg Home - Clerical Communities Clerical communities are composed almost exclusively of religious who are ordained to the priesthood or diaconate. The ministries of religious priests are more sacramental, hence they are often more closely tied to parish life—Masses, confessions, baptisms, marriages, funerals. They also often preach missions or teach in schools or universities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547139951917-JEVJWP2ASKLPQAA67ISK/tor+Franciscans+Sacred+Heart+province.jpg Home - Mixed Communities Mixed communities are made up of both lay and ordained religious. In these communities, the religious priests often serve in sacramental roles, while the lay brothers serve a broader apostolate. Contemplative monks are often mixed communities; priest monks serve the sacramental needs of their brothers, while lay monks serve as sacristans, craftsmen, porters, groundskeepers, and more. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547154307850-Y67YJ9L7GHAKV64CE660/midwestaugfinalvows.jpg Home - Perpetual Vows After several years, he can make perpetual vows, which remain in force for his entire life. In some sense, perpetual vows don’t even expire at death; in heaven, a religious brother becomes only more deeply consecrated to God. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547151443617-4QTLNVYE6KX42FL925DI/dominican+aspirancy.jpg Home - Postulancy Then, during the stage called postulancy, a young man more formally discerns entering religious life. Living with the community and learning about the charism, he asks, “Am I called to become a novice?” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547148993735-GD7KOLOHHRNQ01FWWIT4/image-asset.jpeg Home - Pray Spend at least 20 minutes daily in silent prayer, listening to God’s voice. Attend daily Mass when possible. Try praying the Liturgy of the Hours, which is a key part of all religious brothers’ prayer lives. Ask God for the grace of chastity, poverty, and obedience https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547152922285-M33NOE0DI7DWE23JGKPV/JeromeSimpson_FirstVows_Rule.jpg Home - Temporary Vows After completing novitiate, a man can petition to make his first temporary vows. Depending on his community’s rule, he will make different vows, but the most common are chastity, poverty, and obedience. At this point, the brother is a full member of the community. He usually renews these temporary vows for 3-5 years. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547152792253-TCJGZJX7X2EYWA6R70TW/cfr+novice.jpg Home - Novitiate During novitiate, a man usually begins wearing the religious habit of the community. He takes on the daily life a religious brother, and discerns taking his first vows while receiving one or two years of formation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547150644939-0JN5TX36BXXKDZUTK0X0/brothers%252Bof%252Bhope%252Bfrisbee.jpg Home - Visit You can’t discern the vocation of brother without meeting religious brothers! Ask to spend a weekend at one of their households or monasteries, or look for any discernment retreats they are hosting. Spend some time working with them and seeing their way of life from the inside. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547151184814-F91XX9PFWEIZXJ2OEJRM/brothers+of+hope+visit.JPG Home - Aspirancy There are a number of steps before one makes a profession of perpetual vows as a religious brother. Many communities have an initial inquiry or aspirancy stage, where one regularly visits the community and meets with the community’s vocation director. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c06a55ee17ba39601d74c9a/1547150407520-LF2TG0LQTDPAKP313MNK/spiritual+direction.jpg Home - Learn Find a priest or brother to be your spiritual director, guiding you through the discernment process.
