The
Bruté Society is an honorary association
of southwestern Indiana Catholic lay persons who have been recognized by
their fellow parishioners as outstanding models of Christian fellowship.
The society was established in 1990 as an official activity of the Diocese
of Evansville. Simon Bruté was the first Bishop of the Diocese of Vincennes,
which in 1834 included all of Indiana and a portion of Illinois. The Simon Bruté
medal is a symbol of membership. It was fashioned from the official
diocesan stewardship logo which includes the three "stewardship Ts" representing
Treasure, Time, and Talent. We are very proud to display pictures of our
previous recipients.
