Josephite Affiliate and Associate* Leadership Teams Meet at Mission Bay

History was made when these two leadership teams met for a time of formation together. Having acknowledged the desire to gather, plans were made to meet at Mission Bay in September 08. Colleen Keeble (New Zealand Province Leader) ably facilitated a day for us where we reflected on the wisdom of both Julian Tenison Woods and Mary MacKillop and considered what gifts they both offer us in today’s context. The Josephite connection was unmistakable; it was so easy being together. Both groups had the opportunity to share how they gave support to those who resonate with the Josephite charism. We were unanimous that this be an annual gathering and look forward to meeting again next year in Whanganui.
