A great success

My dear Friends

The party on the Jewish New Year for Trees was a great success. We were ten in number and everyone had brought food and drink to share. There was a lovely sense of a real social occasion, with Associates renewing friendships and making new ones. During the course of the evening, I gave an overview on the progress of The Little Sisters of Joy during the last 6 months and it went down well.

Kitty, our hostess, made us feel really welcome. She had a surprise up her sleeve as at the end of the evening she gave us a wonderful rendering of her translations of the Russian poet Tarkovsky, who was the son of the film director. The poems were powerful and deep and the translations quite superb.

A fitting end to a really wonderful occasion!!

Love and Shalom
Sister Gila
