Welcome

pentecost
We hope that you enjoy a leisurely browse through the pages of our website. The Upper Room is a Home of Prayer, a School of Prayer and a Community of Prayer sponsored by the Sisters of St. Joseph in Canada.
 
September 2019 marks the beginning of our 35th year of ministry. We are grateful to God and all our spiritual directors who assist us in this ministry that now spreads out into 4 dioceses: Ottawa, Gatineau, Cornwall and Pembroke. 
 
Gratefully,

Maxims of Perfection   

maxim cardsOccasionally, we will be posting a 'sharing of hearts' on ONE of the Maxims of Perfection written by our Jesuit founder, Jean-Pierre Medaille back in 1657. 

These wisdom sayings have a timeless quality about them and continue to inspire, nurture and guide our daily lives. We hope that you will grow the sharing of hearts by adding your own insights and experiences of how a particular maxim has guided you. The Spirit speaks in and through the community.

Circling the World with Love

'The Little Design' Community is a simple, loving, Gospel way of life that is a more contemplative expression of our Medaillan charism. It can be lived in our own homes. It's vision and mission are described in the founder, Jean-Pierre Medaille's prophetic text, The Eucharistic Letter. Together, let us circle the world with Love. Read the commentaries.
