400th and 50th in Cameroon
“My sister, my brother, my friend, the hand that takes from us tomorrow will make things grow without asking us our opinion.”
With these words from the song of the Saguenay, I invite you to live this official opening of our festivities. I feel that the opening of the year of the 400th anniversary of the birth of Marguerite Bourgeoys and of the 50th anniversary of CND presence on African soil merits a special time of preparation.
On this occasion or at this time of preparation, we will ask the Lord, through the intercession of Marguerite Bourgeoys, for the grace of living this time of preparation in love, reconciliation and mercy and of finding a new missionary fervour, like that of our founding mother, in order to set the world ablaze with the contagious fire of love and faith.
