Saturday 11 April:
At 7.30 in the morning we left our dear Mother House, with Mother Borromée and, after a short visit to Evry, we arrived at Grandbourg. Everyone welcomed us with such kindness and affection.
But what a joy to be setting up the contemplative community completely once again! We visited “La Solitude” – there is still a lot to do but people have already been working hard for us there – how grateful we are, may God bless our dear, kind helpers.

12 April:
A beautiful High Mass – and beautiful offices in a rejuvenated Grandbourg (by that I mean the buildings and garden). We had recreation with our former companions, and then we entered into our recollection: our home was in ‘Paradise’! that we are having to leave in order to go into our Solitude…!

13 April:
We start work again, with determination, we are getting everything ready to receive the furniture, hoping it will soon be here.

19 April:
Surprise, it is snowing! We are missing Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament so much. We are trying not to miss our times of adoration. Notre Mère gives us a little spiritual talk, and assigns our cells to us at the Solitude.
