When Marguerite arrived, she found that children were not likely to survive to an age suitable for attending school. Nevertheless, she began to work with the nurse in charge of Montreal’s hospital, and eventually established her first school in a stable in 1658. She traveled back to France that year, and returned to Montreal with three more teachers and an assis- tant.

  • Saint Marguerite Bourgeoys, CND (1620–1700)
    Saint Marguerite Bourgeoys, CND (1620–1700) Born in Troyes, Champagne (France) on April 17, 1620, the sixth of twelve children, Marguerite Bourgeoys grows up in a Christian, middle class family. She is 19 years old when she loses her mother. The following year, during a procession in honour of Our Lady of the Rosary, she receives a special grace that transforms her and urges her to leave the world and consecrate herself to God. She therefore begins to search for her vocation and finally enters the Congregation of Troyes, an association of young women devoted to teaching children of the poor neighbourhoods of the city. In 1642 she learns about the foundation of Ville Marie, in Canada, and feels a call to missionary life. In 1652 she meets with Maisonneuve, founder and governor of Nouvelle France, who was looking for a lay teacher for the French and Indian children. The Blessed Virgin will appear to her and confirm her vocation: “Go, I won’t abandon you”. Marguerite leaves Troyes in February 1653 and arrives in Montréal in November. She is considered co-founder of Montreal, together with Jeanne Mance and Maisonneuve. To stimulate the piety of the colons, she has the Cross of Mount Royal put up again and plans the construction of a chapel dedicated to Notre Dame de Bon Secours. Convinced of the importance of families in the construction of the new country and the role of women, in 1658, in a stable given to her by the governor, she opens the first school in Montreal. She then starts a new Congregation, like the one of Troyes, but devoted to the needs of the new mission: the Congregation of Notre Dame, who inspires itself from the “journeying life” of the Virgin Mary.

  • Marguerite's Odyssey
    Marguerite’s Odyssey Marguerite’s Odyssey The journeying life of Marguerite Bourgeoys and the Congrégation de Notre-Dame de Montréal. Hello, I am Marguerite Bourgeoys. Welcome to this section on the “odyssey” of my life and of the community I founded. It was not always easy for a young woman from France like me to overcome many different obstacles in order to settle in New France and live out her dreams. It was quite an adventure! But thanks to my unshakeable faith and the courage and determination of my “sisters”, I never gave up. I was also sustained by my motivation to create, with the help of others, a new society. I have always been convinced that by providing practical instruction, we can help those in need to become more self-reliant and to better their lives. That is why I founded a community of non-cloistered sisters. The Virgin Mary was my inspiration. Following her example, my companions and I travelled wherever we were needed. The sisters of the Congrégation de Notre-Dame who have come after me have continued my mission and are now present on four continents. What a wonderful outcome! Come follow our odyssey and complete the 7 challenges… that the Marguerite-Bourgeoys Museum in Montreal has prepared for you. http://www.archivesvirtuelles-cnd.org/en 1 Marguerite’s Odyssey - Challenge 1 Marguerite finds her vocation and joins in the dream of Ville-Marie. Marguerite Bourgeoys’s adventure in Canada begins in France, her native land. Her destiny becomes clear to her through the people she meets whose ideas inspire her.

It was in 1653 when St. Marguerite Bourgeoys left the security of her home in Troyes, France for the wilds of New France, (now known as Canada) to a village called Ville Marie, City of Mary . She traveled alone without the comfort of female friends to a wilderness where she chose to live alongside the poor settlers. Her call was to found a non-cloistered community of religious women who would eventually teach the children of this new foundation. St. Marguerite made several trips back to France to recruit young women who would join her in this endeavor. Ville Marie became her home until her death on January 12, 1700. On October 31st, 1982, Marguerite Bourgeoys was declared a saint! As we mark this anniversary, we thank you for all the ways you have supported us through the years. The small beginning in Ville Marie has grown to the Congregation of Notre Dame. Our Motherhouse is in Montreal and we serve the English-speaking and French-speaking people of Canada, and the people of the US, Central America, Japan, France, and Cameroon. We ask you to continue your support of the many ministries in which we are involved.

  • Une Chapelle Au Cœur D'une Ville
    A CHAPEL AT THE HEART OF A CITY Marguerite Bourgeoys’ historic chapel 1655: Montreal rises laboriously from the forest floor to the sound of swinging axes. This city dedicated to the Blessed Virgin will one day be beautiful and prosperous. That is the pledge of its founders, drawn here by faith and the dream of a better world. One of them, Marguerite Bourgeoys, a modest and endearing woman, will give the city its first stone chapel – Notre-Dame- de-Bon-Secours. Marguerite Bourgeoys arrived in Ville-Marie in 1653 at the invitation of the governor, Paul Chomedey de Maisonneuve, to open the first school. While waiting for the children to reach the school age, she began the work of realizing another dream: the construction of a chapel of pilgrimage dedicated to the Blessed Virgin, accessible to the colonists just a short distance outside the settlement. Marguerite’s enthusiasm was hard to resist and everyone in the small settlement became involved in the project. In 1657, Montreal was transformed from a mission to a parish. It was now under the direction of the Sulpicians who arrived from France to take charge when the Jesuits withdrew to continue their missionary work among the Native Peoples. The foundations of the chapel were taking shape but Father de Queylus, Superior of the priests serving Notre-Dame, had the work suspended. Work on the stone chapel resumed only in 1675 and was completed in 1678. Meanwhile, Marguerite had a little shelter built over the foundations where people would go to pray. On her second trip to France (1670-1672), Marguerite Bourgeoys received the little statue of Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours from Pierre Chevrier, Baron de Fancamp, one of the members of the Société de Notre-Dame de Montréal responsible for funding the Montreal project.

  • Discovering the Notre-Dame-De-Bon-Secours Chapel, a Place of Worship, Art and History
    1 Discovering the Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours Chapel, a place of worship, art and history Stop 1 – Introduction In the early days of the colony, the first pilgrimage destination in Montreal was the cross that Maisonneuve and the first Montrealers raised on the side of Mount Royal on the feast of the Epiphany 1643. 1 At some distance from the settlement, at a time when leaving the enclosure of the fort was risky because of Iroquois raids, the cross met a number of the “criteria” associated with places of pilgrimage. Unfortunately, the colonists didn’t go there very often because of the dangers surrounding travel outside the fort. In the coming hour, we invite you to visit Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours Chapel. It will be our pleasure to help you to discover this historic chapel whose influence is closely tied to the charism of Marguerite Bourgeoys. You will find a place containing many attractions. In addition to the richness of its décor, you will be enchanted by the furnishings, paintings, votive offerings in the form of boats recalling its function as a place of pilgrimage, the “miraculous” statue and, of © CPRQ, 2003. course, the museum. To begin the visit, go to the intersection of de la Commune East and Bonsecours streets. Please stand beside the pillar of the wharf of the Old Port of Montreal. The visit begins outside the building with a presentation of the immediate surroundings on de la Commune East, Bonsecours and Saint Paul streets. This part of the visit allows you to admire the exterior architecture of the chapel and the adjacent buildings and to better understand the particular socio-historical context of the construction of this place and the development of the district.

  • JEANNE LE BER (1662-1714) Chaque Fois Que L'on Parle De La
    JEANNE LE BER (1662-1714) Chaque fois que l’on parle de la fondation de Montréal, il est de mise de faire ressortir les figures historiques que sont Jeanne Mance (1606-1673) et Paul Chomedey (1612-1676). Sans oublier, bien sûr, ceux et celles qui sont à l’initiative de cette folle entreprise, tel Jérôme Le Royer. Comme dans toute entreprise humaine, il existe toujours des personnages hors du commun qui, de manière discrète, contribuent au succès d’un projet de grande envergure. Ces personnages de l’histoire peuvent être classés dans la catégorie d’Illustres inconnus qui sont dans les faits des personnes méconnues de notre histoire. Jeanne Le Ber en est une belle illustration. Mlle Le Ber comme on pouvait la nommer à l’époque était l’aînée d’une famille de quatre enfants. Elle était fille unique de Jacques Le Ber (1633-1706), un riche marchand de la Nouvelle- France et du Montréal naissant et de Jeanne LeMoyne, sœur de Charles LeMoyne (1626-1685), sieur de Longueuil et de Châteauguay. Jacques Le Ber était arrivé en Nouvelle-France avec son frère aîné François, en 1657. Nous sommes donc dans la deuxième étape de l’établissement de Ville-Marie commencé en 1642. En 1660, les Le Ber et les LeMoyne décident d’un commun accord de construire une maison à deux logements distincts sur la rue St-Paul juste en face du bâtiment de l’Hôtel-Dieu de l’époque. C’est là que naîtra Jeanne Le Ber le 4 janvier 1662 qui aura comme parrain Paul Chomedey, sieur de Maisonneuve dont le sort dans la jeune colonie est en sursis et qui finalement quittera (désavoué) Ville-Marie en 1665 pour retourner définitivement en France.

  • The Congrégation De Notre-Dame of Troyes, 1628-1762
    CCHA Historical Studies, 58 (1991), 5-20 Life and Death of a Community: The Congrégation de Notre-Dame of Troyes, 1628-1762 by Elizabeth Rapley Department of History University of Ottawa The religious community of the monastery of the Congrégation de Notre-Dame of Troyes should hold a special meaning for the Canadian Catholic historian. It was the institution where Marguerite Bourgeoys first worked as a teacher. The methods she learned there, we may presume, were the methods that she applied in Montreal, and taught to the members of her congregation.1 It is not too far-fetched to imagine a sort of educational family tree, rooted in Troyes and stretching its branches in Canada. Unfortunately the ancestor was less vital than its descendants. In 1762 it was suppressed for its Jansenist leanings, and disappeared, almost without a trace. Anyone wishing to reconstruct its history must search patiently, and be content with gleanings. A description dating from 1700, provides the setting: In the city of Troyes there is a large house of religious of the Congregation instituted by the saintly priest Fourier, curé of Mattaincourt: cloistered nuns who bring together a large number of secular women ... to follow a life of piety, and teach school, and give religious instruction in various places, going everywhere two by two, as is the practice in missions.2 1 Soeur Sainte-Gertrude-de-la-Croix, CND “L’oeuvre pédagogique de Marguerite Bourgeoys.” Université Laval, 1951: unpublished thesis. 2 Charles de Glandelet, Le Vray Esprit de l’Institut des Soeur seculieres de la Congrégation de Notre-Dame (Montreal: CND, 1976), pp.

    1 JANUARY 12, 2021 Memorial of St. Marguerite Bourgeoys, Virgin Mark 1: 21-28 “WE TRAVEL WITH OTHERS.” On the feast of the Baptism of the Lord last Sunday, Jesus identified Himself to us sinners, He became part of our family and our community. He became one of us. Our gospel for today is just one of the many miracles of Jesus and the best way to be with His people. “In the synagogue of Capernaum Jesus freed a man from possession by an unclean spirit, a madness that had kept him away from his local community and from God. Jesus lived and died to draw people into a sharing of faith, hope and love, and a personal relationship with God. He did not call people to a holiness that would isolate them from others.”1 Jesus wants us to be with Him always, together as one and He does not want us to be separated. The man with an unclean spirit was far from others and the people were afraid of him. He was outcasted, alone and lonely, but because of Jesus, he saw light and hope. The man was imprisoned by the unclean spirit and Jesus freed him with His loving and caring authority. By that, the man was cleaned and freed, and now became part of the community a community that follow Jesus. We are one community, a family of God, so therefore, we are challenge to embrace all, and not separate others by their color, race, or ethnicity. “Our faith journey to God is a journey that we travel with others.
