Christian
Brothers World Wide ministry mapping
project
This is an initiative of the Congregation Leadership Team
which is being carried and designed by Brothers Steve
McLaughlin and Bob Chambers in Brisbane.
Purpose
The purpose of the project is to map Christian Brother
ministries worldwide so that this information is available
for promotional and research purposes of the Congregation
of the Christian Brothers.
The project was initiated by the Congregational Leader in
mid 2005. Whilst all Christian Brother Provinces throughout
the world have documented their ministries in some manner,
there is no collective picture of ministries from a world
perspective. It is expected that this information would be
of some assistance to Brother Donal Leader who is preparing
a Congregational submission to the United Nations for
non-government registration, as well as for promotional
purposes to philanthropists throughout the world.
Outcomes
It is expected that the outcomes of the project will be a
summary of all Christian Brother ministries in the world,
stored in a manner that can be collated under Province,
Region, Target Group and Function of Ministry via a
database that can be interactive with the World Wide Web,
if desired.
