Lucy, Sr. Jacinta and Sr. Marie Therese<br />

On the 1 st of March Lucy had the pleasure of meeting Fr Michael Lapsley SMM, a founding member and director of<br />

IHOM (Institute for the Healing of Memories of which Sr. Jacinta is an active member). Alphonse Niyodusenga,<br />

deputy director of IHOM, together with Loret Loumouamou, network coordinator for IHOM in the Western Cape,<br />

presented Lucy with three beautiful gifts – a candle, a bag and a cushion cover- each embossed with the logo and<br />

slogan of IHOM. The gifts are beautiful reminders of her short visit to South Africa and the opportunity she had to<br />

meet members of the office staff.<br />

SLEEPING BAGS WORKSHOP<br />

The <strong>MWOC</strong> members, with the assistance of parishioners from both St Peter's and St Paul’s parishes, the SW<br />

International School, Loreto Primary School and St Paul’s Catholic youth, brought our annual production of sleeping<br />

bags to 113. These are then distributed by the Helderberg Street People's Centre, to the homeless in the area. We<br />

are most grateful for the selfless contribution of time and effort to all those who participated in this worthwhile<br />

cause.
