In his classic “Mere Christianity”, C.S. Lewis said: “If you picture time as a straight line along which we have to travel, then you must picture God as the whole page upon which that line is drawn. Lewis’ observation is particularly striking to me as I reflect on the last 10 years, since I became a part of a small group of Associate Women (Eagles Wings) in Chatham. My name is Rosalind Braganza. Married to Norm for 33 years, we have two wonderful sons: David who lives and works in Puerto Rico; and Warren lives in Windsor with his wife Sarah. In 1994 I was asked to help in the formation of the Chatham group of Associates. Our group has gone through some real growing pains, but with the grace of God and Sister Doreen, we have managed to survive. We have two wonderful Sisters, two wonderful ladies and myself. Sister Doreen has been instrumental on my journey. Her dedication and love for the Associates helps to keep me motivated and remain committed to my calling. My spiritual journey is also enhanced by my involvement in my parish and community. My daily prayer and relationship with the Lord remain a priority. My high point of being an Associate of the Sisters of St. Joseph comes each year when we all get together with the larger group at Oxley Retreat House. It restores me and gives me a sense of living in His presence.
