Bonjour tout le monde! (Translation: Hello everyone!) This is Shaina, and I bring you greetings from iNFUSE 1 in Montreal, Québec! We're super excited to be here at St. Ignatius of Loyola Parish. Although it was only a short car ride away, we know we're in for a big adventure this year!
On our first night here, our team had dinner with Fr. Mike, our parish priest; families that would be hosting us for the first couple weeks; and some of the people involved with the youth group already established here, called The Almighties. It was so wonderful to meet some of the people that we will be working and spending time with this year! We'll be attending and helping out with some of the programs that are already being run here, such as The Almighties youth group and the Faith First Program (a home-based Catholic education program).
Our primary mission right now is to build relationships with the parish community and youth. We are so excited to be helping out in any way that we can while we're here! By the grace of the Holy Spirit's presence in us we continue to strive, brick by brick, to rebuild the city of God inside the city of man.
Also, we'd love to learn some French while we're here!
Stay tuned for more from iNFUSE 1!
God Bless,
Shaina Wreede
