A Place to Belong – Heart Warming Story

A Place to Belong – Heart Warming Story

Submitted by: John Cornick
3342 Views | 8 Likes

Dear Ron: I just read an article “A Place to Belong” by Marion (Pike) Biasutti, which appeared in your April 2014 issue. Thanks for publishing it. I found the story very heart warming indeed, this in spite of the unfortunate negative publicity associated with the Roman Catholic Church in N.L. over recent years. The author was an orphan at Belvedere Orphanage in St. John’s at the time. The compassion displayed to her by Sister Barnard at that institution, as well as by Father Gregory Hogan, the parish priest at Lamaline, helps to some extent to restore one's faith in the system overall. I am sure there must be many other such positive stories out there.   Submitted By: John Cornick
