Quebec Baha'i Summer School/Ecole d'été
2014
The
Quebec Baha'i Summer School was held at Camp Papillon in
St.-Alphonse-de-Rodriguez, Quebec (the same place as last
year), on 14-17 August 2014. I accompanied my son Alex, his wife
Mahalia, and Jérémie, Benjamin, Alie and my new granddaughter Nalah (7
months old). There were about 150 participants, half children and
youth, with a wonderful family spirit of service.
