Island Family Conference Aug 12-14, 2016. IMPORTANT FAMI-LY CONFERENCE UPDATE: Sadly, our dear Fr Clair has taken ill and will not be able to join us at our Diocesan Family Conference this Aug 12-14. The good news is, God has promptly answered our pray-ers, and has given us a new keynote speaker, Sister John Mary Sulli-van FSE, from the Office of Life, Marriage and Family for the Arch-diocese of Vancouver. Sister Sullivan, a graduate of the John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and the Family in Washington, D.C., worked as a family therapist for eight years. As a Franciscan Sister of the Eucharist, she is passionate about all things family; marriage preparation, fertility awareness and natural family planning, personal formation, marriage enrichment, and parenting. We are thrilled and excited to have her join us and we know you and your family will be richly blessed by her story. Bishop Gary, Fr Stephen Paine and Fr Dean Henderson will join us too as we pray, play and deepen our family relationships on the beautiful shores of Nanoose Bay. To reg-ister please go to rcd.victoria.org For more information email [email protected]

The DIARY of Sister Faustina, written in the form of a journal, records the last four years of her life. It reveals the depths of her spiritual life and illustrates the high degree of her soul’s union with God. The Lord endowed Sister Faustina with tremendous graces: the gift of contemplation, a deep knowledge of the mystery of the mercy of God, visions, revelations, the hidden stigma-ta, the gifts of prophecy and of reading human souls, and also the rare gift of mystical espousal (Diary Introduction, p. 10, Polish Edition)
