When a L'Arche community is being founded and in the early years thereafter, there is a wonderful energy that invades the hearts of those who are involved in building relationships together. L'Arche Sudbury was no exception to this phenomenon. From Roma, who personified hospitality ('do you want a beer?') to Tim, who couldn't get your coat off quick enough, Emmaus House was quickly transformed into a home.The community was blessed with a strong Board of Directors and committed assistants who brought much stability to these new beginnings. Another hallmark that we all depended on was God's providence. Over and over again we were surprised by the tiny miracles that made the unlikely, possible!As we grew and welcomed more people into the community we also began to experience the loss of loved ones, when, only six years after joining us, Leslie Ann died. This mixture of joy and sadness is a part of each person's reality and when shared with another makes life more meaningful and rich. Community life has been a gift for all of us over the years, whether for a short time or over the long haul.
