The Christian Brothers Midwest District is one of three Districts in the Lasallian Region of North America, also known as the Région Lasallienne de l'Amérique du Nord (RELAN). RELAN is comprised of Lasallian ministries in the United States and Canada.
The Midwest District encompasses seven states and includes three universities, twelve high schools, three middle schools, five retreat and educational centers, one publishing house, and the Provincialate Office. Within the District there are 83 Brothers and thousands of lay partners, all working together to further the mission of the De La Salle Christian Brothers.
The Brothers continue to fill important leadership roles in our District including: managing the Provincial Office, running formation programs, teaching in classrooms, encouraging new vocations, and overseeing the health and well-being of our retired Brothers.
Across seven states and 24 ministries, the Brothers continue to serve alongside thousands of lay partnersand accompany nearly 25,000 students. The mission De La Salle began in 1680 remains alive today—in classrooms, retreat centers, and communities throughout the Midwest.
