The SC Federation board held its meeting this afternoon prior to the beginning of the leadership meeting

More than 70 leaders from 13 congregations of the Sisters of Charity Federation are gathering this week in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada for the annual leadership meeting. This year’s meeting is hosted by the Sisters of St. Martha of Antigonish and the Sisters of St. Martha of Prince Edward Island.

The first few days of the meeting are being held on the campus of St. Francis Xavier University, the first mission of the Sisters of St. Martha of Antigonish. The group will take the ferry to Prince Edward Island Friday and finish their meeting at the University of Prince Edward Island.

This evening featured a social and welcome by Sister Brendalee Boisvert, CSM (Antigonish), and Sister Gemma Dunn, CSM (PEI). Dr. Andy Hakin, president and vice chancellor of StFX, also welcomed federation members.
