A Little More Information

This video is short, well done, and easily used in prayer services or short formation programs that focus on specific Brothers who are commemorated in the Lasallian world.

In this case, the focus is on the Brother Raphael-Louis Rafiringa (1856 – 1919) from Madagascar, who has been beatified by the Catholic Church and carries the title “Blessed.” He  is celebrated in the Lasallian calendar on May 19th.

The video is one of a series of videos that were created by a teacher at La Salle Academy in Providence, RI, for use by the school.
