On May 19th the Congregation of Notre Dame Associates of Miramichi welcomed Sister Phyllis and Winnie Odo to our meeting room at St. Mary’s Church in Newcastle. Sr. Phyllis led us in an inspiring candle prayer service which was very meaningful being her last one with us as she finishes her term as area co-coordinator.
Celebration of Feast of the Visitation: The sisters and associates of Halifax met June 3rd to celebrate the Feast of the Visitation. Our time together included prayer, conversation and good food. It was an enjoyable, enriching evening and an opportunity for the Halifax associates to welcome two associates to the area… Anna Rowley from New Brunswick and Alexa Smith from Ottawa.
The 2014 ARCAN Conference: A very enriching and challenging way to spend an evening and a day! Anne Walsh, a Redemptorist Associate, is an accomplished adult educator. She kept us involved with one another around a topic central to the lives of Religious and Associates: CHARISM. It was an opportunity to gain enlightenment regarding our own charisms all while seeing the connections with the charisms of the other communities present.
