Mr. Speaker, Sunday, December 10, will mark the end of a
series of events to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Diocese of Edmunston.
During the past year, a group of volunteers in the diocese, under the able leadership of Jean Pilot, organized a variety of activities for the young and not so young. Thanks to these activities, this event was celebrated with enthusiasm and style.
The final day of the 50th anniversary celebrations will be marked by a solemn high mass at the Immaculate Conception Cathedral in Edmunston, followed by a Christmas concert.
The motto of the Diocese of Edmunston, "Son amour s'étend d'âge en âge", illustrates the optimism and sense of sharing that prevails over any differences that exist in our community.
I want to take this opportunity to wish my constituents a day filled with joy and happiness.
