Jules Chevalier Bicentenary celebration, OLSH and MSC, Sydney, Kensington

Today, we joyfully commemorate the 200th Anniversary since the Birth of our founder and the founder of our MSC brothers, Fr. Jules Chevalier.

In our Mother House in Kensington, our OLSH Sisters and MSC Brothers came together for a Eucharistic celebration, presided over by the MSC Provincial, Fr. Stephen Hackett msc, concelebrated by our brother MSC Priests.

Following the Mass, we gathered for a beautiful morning tea,

in which included the unveiling of a commissioned artwork of Mother Marie Louise Hartzer and Fr. Jules Chevalier by our Provincial Sr Philippa Murphy fdnsc, alongside a commemorative bust of our founder Fr Jules Chevalier to be housed in our Mother House.

On this special and significant milestone for our congregation, we extend our warmest wishes and blessing to all. May the vision and spirit of Fr. Jules Chevalier continue to ignite our hearts, inspiring us to embody divine love as envisioned by him, forever nurturing the mission of being the heart of God here on earth.
