Congregation of St. Basil : ウィキペディア英語版 | Congregation of St. Basil
The Congregation of St. Basil, also known as the Basilian Fathers, is a community of priests, students for the priesthood, and lay associates. It is an apostolic community whose members profess simple vows. The Basilians seek the glory of God, especially in the works of education and evangelization.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.basilian.org/about-us/ )〕 The Congregation was founded in 1822 in the aftermath of the French Revolution. In the early 19th century the Basilian Fathers' educational and pastoral work brought them to a variety of locations in Canada and the United States. In the 1960s, the priests began to minister in Mexico, and in Colombia in the 1980s.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.basilian.org/about-us/ )〕 ==Crest== The Basilian crest was developed in the late nineteenth century.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.basilian.org/about-us/4-3the-basilian-crest/ )〕 Its main components are the founding date of the Congregation (1822); the Congregation's motto in Latin; and a shield bearing four symbols. The four symbols and their meanings are: a chalice, representing the Blessed Sacrament; an open book, representing knowledge; a fleur-de-lis representing both the Blessed Virgin and the French origins of the Basilians; and a Greek cross, representing Christ and honoring St. Basil, the Greek patron of the congregation. The motto, which is translated as "teach me goodness, discipline, and knowledge", is often seen on the logos of Basilian schools around the world. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.basilian.org/about-us/4-3the-basilian-crest/ )〕
