My dear Friends
I was asked the other day: 'Where is the centre of operations for The Little Sisters of Joy?' Well, the answer for the moment is Cambridge, England, where it was officially founded by myself with the help of my friend Maryvonne on 7th March 1999. It was based in the South of the city, until I moved to the north in my flat known as The Haven, 61 Edgcombe, Cambridge CB4 2LW. And that remains the official address until I actually move to Toronto, hopefully within the next 18 months.
The international Foundation for Peace and Reconciliation, under the same name of The Little Sisters of Joy, will become a registered charity within the next year, based in the UK, and my 2 friends near Cambirdge will also be the official representatives of The Little Sisters of Joy in the UK, answering all manner of questions and responding as the need arises.
My original vision remains and, if all goes well, one day The Little Sisters of Joy will be also a religious community of sisters, living and working together here in Toronto, under the Archbishop. But Toronto as a point of reference already exists; every time Icome here and make new friends and contacts, something grows and happens. If I make it back again this coming September, I am thinking about holding a small gathering of Friends and supporters, perhaps at a venue in the University. We could share food, and I could sing with my guitar.
Watch this space!
Shalom from Sister Gila
