(The Assumption Family in France sponsors some 10 youth residences, known in French as foyers, for men and women throughout the country. These houses offer youth people the opportunity to live in community, take their faith seriously, and nurture a serious prayer life. Every year the members of all the residences get together for an annual retreat. One of the participants describes this year's experience, which took place at the Assumptionist spiritual center outside Paris, St. Lambert-des-Bois).
Although I don't live in one of the foyers, I was given a warm welcome at the annual retreat intended to be a source of spiritual refreshment and community-building. Meteorologists were predicting a beautiful weekend and in fact there was lots of sun outside and plenty of spiritual light inside.

(In order to undertake the extensive renovations necessary to restore the century-old church of St. Augustine, the bishop of Constantin-Hippo sent out a wide appeal to religious, political, cultural, and private organizations for help. As members of the broader Augustinian Family, the Assumptionists, also known as the Augustinians of the Assumption, made a substantial gift to this worthy cause. As a result, they were invited to participate in the festivities celebrating the completion of the renovations and the raising of the church to the status of a basilica. The superior general, Fr. Benoît Grière, unable to attend the ceremonies, asked one of his assistants, Fr. John Franck, to represent him at the beginning of May. He sends us the following report).
The church of St. Augustine in Hippo, newly and magnificently renovated and duly raised to the status of a basilica, stands perched prominently on an isolated hill commanding a view of the entire surrounding countryside: the Mediterranean coast, the modern city of Annaba, the imposing heights of the Edough plateau, and, at its feet, the vast complex of ruins of the ancient Roman and Byzantine city of Hippo.
