I had a 24-hour window in my agenda, which allowed me to head up to Cap-de-la-Madeleine and spend time with the English-speaking diocesan priests of Montreal where were there on retreat. It was good to have some fellowship with them — every other year I spent the whole week, but with the hospital schedule I could only muster a day this time.
Sharing the same retreat centre with us was the Assembly of Quebec Catholic Bishops! It was nice chance to see our pastors in action, and to chat with them about the future of the Church here in Quebec.
