Our days at the Cité St. Pierre have been punctuated by numerous celebrations. Faith and Light is an ecumenical movement and we had ensured a good representation of Christian traditions: as a vast majority of provincial coordinators are Catholic and the only non-Catholic coordinators had to cancel at the last moment, only chaplains reflect this richness and this diversity with Marian Crawford (Methodist) Tim Dobbin (Anglican), Samer Awad (Orthodox), Carlos el Haddad and Martin Chomiw (Greek Catholics) and 5 Roman Catholic priests (Isaac, Dariusz, Ian, Ronal and Xavier). 
Catholic Masses were celebrated on Sunday and the Feast of Light, a foot washing took place the evening of the day I talked about the (good workshop practice how to exercise the authority to Faith and Light) and morning prayers had been prepared by people from different parts of the world.
And then, Monday evening during the meeting questions - answers, Marian said her suffering before the little room that was reserved for celebrations of other traditions ... She put the finger where it hurts ... If I had taken the precaution of bringing her and the other chaplains, I had been jusqu'u end of my intentions ... 
So I went to see her, and we added in the next day's program a Eucharistic celebration presided over it with Tim, the chapel was quickly completed and the mass was full of fervor and the bonds of unity among all palpable! Gloria sung by Marian was superb and he was asked to rechanter the next day during Mass on February 2.
