The Feast of the Foundress of the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary, our Holy Mother, is celebrated on August 12.

This year we will present a “novena” to spiritually prepare for the Feast, in a slightly different form. Meditations taken from a talk by a beloved Visitation Superior of Annecy, from the past, Mother Anne Marie Babin, VHM, (1860’s) spoken to Visitandine Sisters but applicable for all, hopefully will guide your heart and mind as you come to know better the soul of our holy Foundress.

The first day of the novena is Wednesday August 3, 2022.

You are welcome to return to this website day by day to imbibe the wisdom of Mother Anne Marie Babin as she reflects on St Jane de Chantal.
