International Centre in Le Puy

A few weeks ago our Executive Director, Sister Valerie Van Cauwenberghe, travelled to Le Puy in France, where she experienced a  preview of spring weather still to come to Canada!   It was a time of welcoming and celebrating new life at the International Centre. Sister Claudette Des Forges, (CSJ Orange CA) had arrived only a few days earlier and the Executive of the International Centre Board had gathered for its meeting. Claudette is fluent in French and was becoming acclimatized to the colder weather - her first experience with winter. This was a wonderful opportunity to meet with the staff and review plans for the coming months.  Please keep Sisters Rita, Gracy and Claudette in your prayers.
