NOW ON YOUTUBE: A RARE RITUAL IN THE LIFE OF THE AUGUSTINIAN SISTERS

Mini-documentary / Moving the shrine of Catherine de Saint-Augustin

Catherine de Saint-Augustin (1632-1668) still holds a special place in the hearts and faith of the Augustinian Sisters, and her heroic deeds of charity continue to inspire them. The rare and solemn ritual surrounding the moving of her shrine - that took place as renovation work began on the Hotel-Dieu de Québec monastery – was captured on film and is now available for viewing.
