I just returned from being in Buffalo for a Discernment Day, and Montreal for several meetings. Pictured at left is Marie-Reine-du-Monde, Montreal's Roman Catholic Cathedral. It was designed as a replica of St. Peter's in Rome.

One of the meetings in Montreal was with the planners of the Eucharistic Congress which is being held in Quebec City, June 15 - 22, 2008. The theme will be "God's Gift For The Life Of The World." Just thought I would give you a heads up, as the info hasn't been distributed in the US yet, and you may want to make plans.

Advent is a wonderful time to listen to the Lord and discern as Mary did.
Women considering a vocation can identify with Mary. Wanting to be open to God....Not sure what God is asking on me....Having fears...Wondering how could God be calling me? All these things Mary pondered in her heart!

Join us for a Come and See Retreat in Advent, December 1-3 at St. Clare's Convent in Tampa. Come listen...and ponder in your heart!

For more information, to register, or for our scehdule of retreats, refer to Discernment Retreats.

God bless,
