Feast of the Nativity of Mary<\/span><\/h1>\n

September 8th<\/sup>, 2022<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

On this very special feast day I would like to highlight a few joyful events that took place at the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first event started with an annual retreat held at Queen\u2019s house in Saskatoon while the other sisters at the infirmary followed a retreat by video conferences in P.A.  Then all the sisters came and gathered together at the infirmary, as a province.  Some sisters shared their experiences of the canonization of their foundress Blessed Marie Rivier who was proclaimed a \u2018Saint \u2018on May 15, 2022, in Rome. One sister felt that meeting the sisters from every continent \u2018was just like coming home to a family reunion.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

When Pope Francis came to Canada on July 24th<\/sup>, 2022, to deliver his special message of \u2018Apology\u2019, some sisters who accompanied Indigenous people to Lac St. Anne, Alberta, also shared some memories of their trip.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following this, a ritual called \u2018A Praise T.V. Olympic Team 2022\u2019 was planned and prepared by Sr. April Mireau and Sr. Emma Rousseau helped with the acting, while Sr. Rita Bisson did the singing.  An acrostic presentation was used and animated by Sr. April to express our genuine gratitude and appreciation to: our former provincial Superior, Sr. Lise Paquette, her assistant Sr. Priscilla Houde and the treasurer, Sr. Michelle Blanchette.  They were then presented with medals for their numerous years of service to the community.      <\/span>We offer them our warm wishes for their successful future endeavors.<\/span><\/em>      <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Then with encouraging words of hope, Sr. Lise introduced the new provincial Sr. Mary Woodward who will replace her, and wished her good luck in her new ministry to continue to bring the flame of love to others.  Sr. Mary then took the opportunity to have a Commissioning Ritual during a prayerful service where she called each sister by name to live obedience in a privileged manner through a \u2018sending out on mission.\u201d<\/strong>(C40)     <\/span> <\/p>\n

We are gratefulfor the messengers of-the people, events written or spoken words- that came to us at  just the right time and helped us to grow.’<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
