  • Christian Education by Bl. Basil Moreau
    Christian Education By Blessed Basil Anthony M. Moreau The Holy Cross Institute AT ST. EDWARD’S UNIVERSITY Editor’s Note First published in 1856, Christian Education is a manuscript by Reverend Basil Anthony M. Moreau, founder of the Congregation of Holy Cross. In this manuscript, Father Moreau attempted to outline the ideals and the goals of a Holy Cross education as he saw them. These ideals were used in setting up the school in Le Mans, France, that bore the name Our Lady of Holy Cross. Part One of the original text, Teachers and Students, is presented in its entirety. Part Two, dealing with the establishment of a school in the France of Father Moreau’s day, provides practical guidelines for maintaining a school and directives regarding content and instruction. This edition includes brief excerpts from the final part (the only difference from the earlier version), which deals with the teaching of religion and the Christian formation of students. Grateful acknowledgement is made to the South-West Province, Congregation of Holy Cross for making Christian Education available in English to the Congregation, and in particular to Brother Edmund Hunt, CSC, for the initial translation, completed in 1986. That edition was ably edited by Brother Franklin Cullen, CSC, and Brother Donald Blauvelt, CSC. The new excerpts included in this edition are from a subsequent translation of Christian Education by Sister Anna Teresa Bayhouse, CSC, completed in December 2002. To this sesquicentennial edition of Christian Education are appended a readers’ guide and materials for further reflection. Grateful acknowledgement goes to the contributions of Brother Joel Giallanza, CSC, Brother Thomas Dziekan, CSC, and Brother Robert Lavelle, CSC, in the preparation of these latter materials.
