| Angelinas Meeting January 2013 |
One of the Angelinas writes "We are a group of mothers of young children who come together for mutual support and to find inspiration in the writings of St Angela Merici. We are blessed to have the Ursuline sisters to guide us in the spirit of St Angela as we strive to live out our vocations as wives and mothers. The meeting begins with time to chat and share our experiences, joys and challenges over a delicious meal prepared by some of the Angelinas. We then have a reflection led by one of the Ursulines inspired by St Angela Merici". To read the poem I am love - I am God - I am your story, the basis of a reflection in an earlier meeting.
