Dear Lasallians,
We are pleased to announce the appointment of Brother Rey Mejias as Coordinating Secretary of the Secretariat for Formation
In addition to his personal qualities, Brother Rey brings to his new mission a long experience as a formator and administrator. As head of this Secretariat, he will continue the challenging work of institutional implementation of the new formation document “Lasallian Formation for Mission: the Pilgrim’s Handbook”, on which he is working on his doctoral thesis.

To take on this responsibility, Rey leaves the leadership of the PARC Regional Novitiate.
