The OCDS in Quebec held their annual retreat from 13 \u2013 15th September at the Centre of Prayer in Trois-Rivieres, on the theme of \u201cWho will lead me to happiness, with Teresa of Jesus<\/em>\u201d. The retreat was led by Fr Francois-Dominique Lambert, the Provincial Delegate from Avignon-Aquitaine.<\/p>\n

More than thrity members from our eight communities came from far and wide, including Ontario, Abitii and Lake St Jean, to partiipate in this event, which is always greatly appreciated. The programme consisted of lectures, a workshop in small groups, liturgical celebrations, communal prayer and, naturally, fraternal meetings. We also had the joy of celebrating the entrance into formation of Barbara Seguin, the first fruit of the latest group, \u201cNotre Dame du Bon Samaritain\u201d, based in St Jerome, in the Laurenziani.<\/p>\n

This time of renewal gave us the opportunity to say with St Teresa and in communion with all our brothers and sisters in Carmel, \u201cGod alone suffices\u201d.<\/p>\n
