Submitted by Mirna, a FCJ Companion in Mission in Calgary
The FCJ Sisters in Calgary invited the Companions in Mission (CiMs) and the CiMs in Formation to join them in a special celebration of Holy Thursday at their home in the FCJ Christian Life Centre. This day holds deep significance as it commemorates the Institution of the Eucharist and the founding of the FCJ Society.
The evening began with a beautiful Mass, where we prayed together and reflected on the profound gift of the Eucharist and the spirit of service embodied by Jesus at the Last Supper.
After Mass, we shared a delicious supper together, strengthening the bonds between the Sisters and the CiMs. The meal was a time of warmth, joy, and gratitude, deepening the spirit of companionship that lies at the heart of the FCJ charism.
Following the meal, those who were able remained for a time of prayer before the Altar of Repose, spending quiet moments in reflection and thanksgiving for the blessings of the evening.
The celebration was a wonderful reminder of the unity and mission we share, and we are deeply grateful to the FCJ Sisters for their generous hospitality and spiritual leadership.
