The Querbesian year (Sep 1, 2009 – Aug 31, 2010) celebrates the 150th anniversary of the death of Fr. Louis Querbes, the founder of the Clerics of St. Viator. The kick-off will be celebrated in Vourles, France and celebrations continue throughout the year in all the provinces and foundations.
Using materials from the archives collection, I will be creating exhibits during this year to showcase the life and spirit of Fr. Querbes. I’m looking forward to serving on this Commission in the years to come and especially in this Querbesian year!
