On a Tuesday, a friend invited me to accompany her to the Friendship Room, which is an outreach of the Salvation Army. They serve coffee, donuts, muffins, etc. to people who drop-in. I knew very little about this ministry and was eager to learn more so I accepted.
The first Visitation Province Associate Assembly became a reality one year ago and is now part of our Associate Relationship history. Forty-six associates and fourteen sisters from across Visitation Province as well as two associates from Blessed Sacrament Province participated in this special Gathering.
We chose as the theme, “On Fire for Mission,” which was so appropriate for the gathering that was held on Pentecost Sunday. It was also close to the Feast of the Visitation so sisters renewed their vows and associates their commitment to Associate Relationship at Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours Chapel.
The Sisters and Associates invite you to join them in the Celebration of the Eucharist in anticipation of the 400th birthday of their foundress, St. Marguerite Bourgeoys, on Sunday, June 16 at 10:30 am at St. Dunstan’s Basilica in Charlottetown.
