Canada at that time consisted of but a few scattered colonies, and half a century was yet to elapse before Confederation. As Canada's oldest bank, the Bank of Montreal, gave Canadians their first real money. From the start, the Bank planted its branches at strategic points throughout the country as set- tlement spread, and nursed along the early busi- ness enterprises of the colonies. During the century and a quarter since its foundation, the Bank, working hand in hand with Canadians in all walks of life, has aided and shared in the development of every phase of the country's economic life.

    2020 RCRI Virtual Conference Joy of the Gospel: Path for Renewal in Uncertain Times 12:00 noon – 4:00 PM (ET) Friday, October 23. 2020 Friday, October 30, 2020 Friday, November 6, 2020 2 2020 RCRI Virtual Conference WELCOME TO THE 2020 VIRTUAL CONFERENCE!! On behalf of the Board of Directors and Staff of the Resource Center for Religious Institutes, I welcome you to the 2020 virtual Conference. Though different from our in-person conferences, we look forward to an enriching conference experience as RCRI begins a new decade of service. We have developed a program of 18 workshop/webinars for the virtual experience with topics that we hope will assist you in addressing the financial and legal issues facing your institutes, especially during these uncertain times. This year’s conference theme is Joy of the Gospel: A Path for Renewal in Uncertain Times reflecting the joy and newness of the Gospel. Pope Francis urges us in New Wine in New Wineskins “to not have fear of making changes according to the law of the Gospel…leave aside fleeting structures – they are not necessary...and get new wineskins, those of the Gospel.” He goes on to say that “one can fully live the Gospel only in a joyous heart and in a renewed heart” (page 31). Fifty-five years ago this October, the Decree on the Renewal of Religious Life, Perfectae caritatis was approved by the Second Vatican Council. The document calls religious and the entire Church to adaptation and renewal of religious life based on a return to the spirit of the founders in the light of the signs of the times.

    CCHA Historical Studies, 70 (2004), 111-130 The Culture of Catholic Women’s Colleges at the University of Toronto 1911-19251 Elizabeth M. SMYTH From the 1847 arrival of members of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary (IBVM) (The Loretto Sisters), women religious have played an active and a diverse role in a variety of educational ins- titutions for Ontario’s children and youth. By the turn of the century, schools run by orders of women religious were present in both urban and rural Ontario, with many of the congregations using their Ontario mother houses to establish missions across Canada (and by early twentieth century, around the world). What is evident from a review of the historical record is the extent to which communities of women religious responded to the changing needs of the times. Their invol- vement and leadership in education (broadly defined) altered their members and their governance structures as well as the larger religious and secular domains in which they worshiped and lived. This article is part of a course of research on women religious and education. It explores this topic through the lens of the culture of IBVM’s Loretto College and the Congregation of the Sisters of St Joseph of Toronto’s (CSJ) St Joseph’s College, the two Catholic women’s colleges at the University of Toronto. The argument is put forth that the two women’s colleges worked effectively to create a space for themselves, their faculty, and their students within both the secular and religious communities of the University of Toronto.

  • Charism of Holy Cross Spirituality, Mission and Community Life
    CHARISM OF HOLY CROSS SPIRITUALITY, MISSION AND COMMUNITY LIFE A "charism" is a gift of the Spirit that is given individually or collectively for the common good and the building up of the Church. Inherent in this gift is a particular perception of the image of Jesus Christ and of the Gospel. It is, therefore, a source of inspiration, a dynamic commitment, and a capacity for realization. THE CHARISM OF HOLY CROSS Basile Moreau was a man open to the world of his time, namely 19th -century France. He knew the effects of the revolutionary change and social upheaval of his century. He also experienced the often violent hostility towards religion and the Church, the growth of secularism, and widespread dechristianization. He wanted to be present to a society in search of itself. He felt called to work for the restoration of the Christian faith and through it for a regeneration of society. He was ready to undertake anything for the salvation of individuals, to lead them or bring them back to Jesus Christ. He participated in the work of Catholic renewal by his bold response to the wide range of needs both in the Church and in society. He asked his religious to "be ready to undertake anything ... to suffer everything and to go wherever obedience calls in order to save souls and extend the kingdom of Jesus Christ on earth” (Rule on Zeal). He even went so far as to say that if a postulant or a novice did not have that inner zeal to work for the salvation of souls, he was not fit for Holy Cross.

  • Sister Maureen's Passing Expression of Gratitude
    SISTER MAUREEN'S PASSING Sister Maureen's passing caused me much sorrow. I wrote a little text for her. Why do roses wilt? A rose has wilted in our rose garden. A rose is gone, not just any rose, A very beautiful rose. A delicate and elegant rose. A rose in full bloom. A rose that inspired all the young and not-so-young in the Region of Haiti. A rose appreciated for its aesthetic quality. Since December 31, 2017, the entire Region of Haiti is sad. Since a rose never disappears, we believe that God is transforming our rose into light to illuminate our beloved Haiti that she loved so much, as well as every member of the Region of Haiti. Sister Maureen, go in peace! We will always remember you. Dadeline Jean, CSC EXPRESSION OF GRATITUDE Greetings, Dear Sisters and Dear Brothers! On this very important and special day for each one of us, we lack the words to truly express our gratitude to God and to you. However, as a proverb of our cultures says; "If the goat ate the fruits of the big tree, it owes its gratitude to the wind that made the fruit fall". This is why we give thanks to the God of life who called us to his service. During this process, we experienced his Presence, his free love and his tenderness for us. We offer a bouquet of flowers to you, dear parents of Burkina Faso and Haiti, for the life, the faith and the good education that you gave us.
