WEAVING THE THREADS OF VISION

The weekend 29-30^th June 2024 saw a special gathering of affiliates and Daughters of Charity at our Provincial House in Mill Hill. We came together to share our story and achieve the following aims:

·       To get to know each other better

·       To meet as a group and on a personal level

·       To share our stories – personal, province and Vincentian Charism

·       To pray together and share Eucharist

·       To enjoy quiet time for reflection

·       To weave the threads of vision for a collaborative way forward.



We were blessed by glorious weather as we came together in a variety of sharing settings – inputs, group work, prayer and reflection, meals, coffee breaks, socialising, walks and even a visit to our cemetery to visit the graves of Sisters, we have all known and loved. Sunday morning, we began to create a vision for affiliation and what might make for meaningful, practical next steps. We did this through a “Weaving Session”. Everyone left with joyful hearts and plans to meet again.
