What’s new

Chapter feedback from Canada

We had been waiting with great anticipation for October 18th to receive feedback from the Chapter. Early in the morning, we made our way to the Brisson Center in Casselman in Eastern Ontario. When we arrived we were happy to see everyone. The welcoming and accommodating room helped us forget our “Family Home” at 15 Oblate Ave., Ottawa. At 9:30, everyone was in place for the day’s opening song “Come, rise up” followed by the opening address given by Sister Andrée Guindon, Provincial Superior. We were off to a good start! The capitulars gave their presentations in front of the microphone, one after the other. They shared their invaluable experience and the topics that were discussed by the capitular assembly. They held our interest through visual projections. All of the subjects are very pertinent for today! As the day went on our hearts were won over by the enthusiasm of getting involved in concrete actions with all of the SSCJ of the Congregation. Yes, in our own way, we can invest with our fellow citizens in building a new world. At 11:30, we went to Aquatria residence, where 32 Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus live. There we enjoyed a good meal while sharing fraternally with one another. On our return to Brisson Center, we continued earlier topics and concluded with the handing out of the Orientations and Sister Andrée giving us a missionary send-off. As a Province, let us commit to living out the mission of tenderness and mercy • By respecting the environment and by caring for Creation that has been entrusted to us, • By promoting the dignity of all persons with special attention given to the most vulnerable, • By building social bonds that are just and fair and building fraternal relationships within community, • By renewing trust in our Church. Before leaving, an evaluation strongly expressed our appreciation concerning the place, schedule, presentations, etc. This day was definitely a KEY MOMENT that sent us joyfully back on the road that the Lord sets out for us. A big THANK YOU to Andrée and our capitulars. GO AND BE SOWERS OF HOPE IN THE HEART OF THE WORLD
