Scope and content

Item consists of 1 audio cassette featuring a talk given by Jean Vanier at the Eastern Regional Gathering in Boston, MA, in April, 1984.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: You know when I left being International coordinator some years ago and then also the responsibility of my community, I fixed my priorities living in one of the homes in Trosly at the Val. It’s a real gift for me to live in a foyer and to live the sufferings and joys of a foyer. But it limits me at the same time. It limits me because it means my space for travel is limited. I can’t visit other communities as I would like. It’s never easy for me to fix my priorities. But it’s true that I feel called to go into situations where others are not being called. Like last year I was in Poland for a week.
