John Baptist de La Salle was born on April 30, 1651, in Rheims, France. The son of aristocratic parents, La Salle had the opportunity for an excellent education and went on to be ordained a priest. He fully intended to work among the wealthy people of his area throughout his career.

He was a French educator and founder of the Brothers of the Christian Schools (sometimes called the de La Salle Brothers), the first Roman Catholic congregation of male nonclerics devoted solely to schools, learning, and teaching

I like that St. John Baptist De La Salle was so devoted to God that he founded the De la Salle brothers or the Christian Brothers

We are both similar and different. One similarities is that we both love God, one difference is that he founded an organization, I didn’t

April 30, 1651 – April 7, 1719 age 67 was his full life, and within those years he gained a lot of fame
