About Brother André Marie


A native of New Orleans, Louisiana, Brother André Marie graduated from that city's Holy Cross School in 1988. He went on to study at Louisiana State University (LSU) on full scholarship as a music major. After three years at LSU, he transferred to Holy Apostles College and Seminary, in Cromwell, Connecticut, where he took a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spring of 1993 (major in Humanities with a minor in Philosophy). In September of 2007, he received the degree of Master of Arts in Theology, Summa cum Laude, also from Holy Apostles.

He entered as a postulant for the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in May of 1993, and went on to the novitiate on Christmas of that year. He made profession of vows on Epiphany of 1996.

Since 1993, he was mentored in philosophy and theology by Brother Francis Maluf, M.I.C.M., Ph.D., a published philosopher of note.

His apostolic work has included various facets of the publishing apostolate of the congregation. For ten years, he was also part of the community's small "mission band" of brothers who traveled to different cities distributing literature to interested persons in an effort to spread the Catholic Faith and bring wayward Catholics back to a sacramental life. He oversaw that apostolate for four years.

He has edited three of the Congregation's books, published hundreds of articles, and presented numerous lectures in theology, apologetics, and devotional topics. He has been published in From the Housetops, Christian Order, Apropos Magazine, The Remnant, Rorate Caeli, The Latin Mass: The Journal of Catholic Culture and Tradition, and Catholic Online. He is also publisher and editor-in-chief of Catholicism.org

Since 2002, he has been Prior of St. Benedict Center, an apostolate of the Slaves of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in Richmond New Hampshire.

Since 2015 he has hosted Reconquest, a weekly Internet Radio show numbering almost 500 episodes, airing on the Crusade Radio Network.

Past memberships include the Knights of Columbus, the ITEA, and Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia.

He maintains social media contact via Linkedin, Gab, SP3RN, and Facebook.
