November Remembering
The Sisters of Résidence Bon-Secours in Montréal could not gather physically, but united in spirit and prayer to remember and celebrate the lives of their companions called into the fullness of life this past year. Our small community is missing four of its members ... Anastasia Murphy, Joyce Roberts, Patricia Landry and Katherine Coltart. Through prayer, song and reflection, we remembered and gave thanks for so much gift.
In unity with each of you and all in our world experiencing loss and called into being and offering HOPE wherever and however we can,
Sisters of Mary of Peace community
Here we are, the new Canadian Congrégation de Notre-Dame vocation committee! With your prayers, CND leaders from across Canada welcomed the new committee. Our work unites CND sisters of different regions and languages in Canada to promote Congrégation de Notre-Dame religious life and respond to questions raised. Magnificat!
Halloween Bingo at Providence Motherhouse – Kingston
Who said Halloween is for children? Perhaps it is because many of the sisters and staff let loose their inner child in the dining room at Providence Motherhouse. To enhance the environment, the costumes worn by staff and many of the sisters were most creative and some even had us guessing the identity of the person so adorned. As always, safe distancing was observed as the regular Thursday Bingo got under way. Bingo winners are always eager to choose the mystery prize. This week, hidden between the pages of a calendar was the $5 bill. Special treats appropriate to the Halloween theme were enjoyed by all. This is just one of the many opportunities offered to provide socialization and enjoy variety in our lives during the COVID-19 reality.
