Associates from our three Anglophone groups: “Marylose”, “In Her Footsteps” and “Richelieu Rose”, renewed their annual commitment during the Eucharistic celebration in the chapel of our Congregational House in Longueuil on November 6th. Msgr. Michel Parent, P.H., V.É. (episcopal vicar) was the presider and homilist. You can read his homily in the PDF file at the bottom of this text.
This year we highlighted the 200th anniversary of the birth of our beloved foundress, Blessed Marie-Rose Durocher and we invited Msgr. Parent to preside especially since he had been an integral part of the rituals for the transfer of her remains from the Motherhouse to the Co-cathedral of Saint-Antoine-de-Padoue in Longueuil in 2004.
