The Brothers, consecrated, are helped little by little by teams of teachers and non teaching staffs to found,\u00a0 organise, and develop.<br \/>\nIn 1982 for the first time, the General Chapter, a decision-making Assembly of the Brothers, speaks about the shared Mission with associate members. From 1984, initiatives set off in several countries. In 1989, the first associated members publicly make a commitment in Canada, then others follow in France, in particular. Documents, initiatives and events will accelerate the process . Thus, the European Congress of the shared Mission of Bilbao, Spain, in 2004.<\/p>\n<p>It is the international Assembly held from 18 till 24 August 2008 with 80 delegates from 24 countries where Brothers and laymen are at work, that is the founding event.
