The L'Arche Canada Foundation in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada with Jean Vanier's Daily Thoughts for 
Friday, 21 October 2016 "An Interdenominational Caution"
The danger for interdenominational communities is that the people in them begin to see religion as a source of division. It is so easy to slip away then from all spiritual values, and to put all our energy into leisure activities and community celebrations where we can be united. But such activities are not sufficient for building and sustaining community.[Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 203

The L'Arche Canada Foundation in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada with Jean Vanier's Daily Thoughts for Thursday, 20 October 2016 "Our Calling"
L'Arche is called to be a prophetic place of peace and reconciliation. This is our call and our gift. And our beloved God will give us the nourishment we need as he gave it to his people in the desert with the gift of manna and of water springing from the rock. If we cry out in pain God will feed us.[Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 204]
