Celebrations around the World

Ad multos annos

Throughout 2012, the Infant Jesus Sisters are celebrating 350 years of mission since the birth of the Institute in Rouen in 1662.  It was then that the Holy Spirit inspired Nicolas Barré to gather together some young women, who shared his insight and compassion, to respond to the great deprivation he saw among the children and families of his day.

Some countries have already begun to celebrate this momentous anniversary. Three countries - France, Italy and Peru - have let us know what they have been doing and you can read about them by clicking on the link below.

We look forward to reading the stories and enjoying the pictures of celebrations of all kinds from all the provinces, vice-provinces and districts.
