Feast: 23 October (not on the universal Roman calendar; kept in the Roman Martyrology or local calendars)
Who they were
Jules-Nicolas Rèche was born on 2 September 1838 at Landroff, in the diocese of Metz, the first of nine children of a poor but believing family. He joined the Brothers of the Christian Schools as Brother Arnould.
He taught at Reims for fourteen years and from 1877 was master of novices at Thillois, forming young religious with firmness, understanding and humility. From 1889 illness wore him down, and he died in 1890.

Why that counted as sanctity
A brother wholly docile to the Holy Spirit, faithful in teaching and in prayer.
The cause
The cause continues. No postulation address is published here yet. Favours received through this person’s intercession, and offers of help, are best sent to the religious order or congregation they belonged to, or to the diocese where the cause was opened; either will pass them to the postulation.
