There in the loft of the little log chapel on the shores ol' the lake at Notre Dame. they took up in America the work destined for them hy God. Despite their pressing duties, the Sisters found. and still do find. time to sanctify themselves and those with whom they work. This they are pledged to do through their meditation: Mass and Holy Communion: daily visit to the Blessed Sacrament, which is the very center of their lives: the Little Ofhce of the Blessed Virgin. which they chant daily: spiritual reading: the reeitation of the rosary and the Seven Dolor heads, and through a weekly hour of adoration made for the interests of the entire community. This prayer comhined with their active work has made ol' the Con- gregation three separate eommunities in France. in Canada. and in the llnited States. This prayer takes them into the classroom. or- phanages. hospitals. and even to the uttcrmost parts of the earth ' to Brazil and East Pakistan.
