Simulated Sports Game Entertains Residents
Residents of the Manor and HC Health Care Center can now go bowling, play tennis, or golf right at home. A generous donor donated the popular simulated sports game called Wii for the use of our Sisters and residents. The game allows people to "play" the sport by swinging and controlling a hand-held remote. The player's action is then simulated on a large screen TV.

MARCH 2009
Healthcare: 2008 Five Star Rating
Early on some sisters demonstrated natural talents for the medical field and by the 1980's their services were required within the community. Until then, sisters who were ill or elderly were transferred to our infirmary in Saint Laurent, Canada. This practice changed because of the restrictions of Socialized Medicine in Canada.
FEBRUARY 2009
mOREAU DAY CELEBRATION 2009
Once again the sisters of the US Region gathered together to celebrate our beloved founder, Blessed Basile Moreau. We were welcomed by our Regional Animator, Sister Carol Descoteaux.
Sr. Doris Gagnon, Community Director, gave a brief introduction to "Participative Leadership" which was followed by morning prayer prepared by Srs Diane Dupere and Elaine Theoret. This brief but poignant prayer set the tone for "Forgiveness and reconciliation", two virtues so intensely lived by our founder, the theme of the day.
