Study questions may be completed as the student reads or at the end of the week when reading has been completed. Written Assignment: List the obstacles which face Mère Marie as she attempts to fulfill her God-given mission to Canada. What is Mère Marie's attitude towards these obstacles? Read Chapter 1-2 and answer Study Questions. Chapter 1. The story opens with the Archbishop awaiting the arrival of Marie Martin, a young, prayerful widow with an 11-year-old son. She tells the Archbishop that she has always wanted to be a nun, and now feels called to enter the Ursuline convent. She has been living with her sister and brother-in-law and helping to run their business, so they are not happy that she wants to enter the convent. The Archbishop supports her plans and urges her to ask the Blessed Virgin Mary to help her tell her son what she plans to do. When Marie gets home, she finds that her son Claude has already guessed that something is going on and is worried. She tells him that she wants to enter the convent, and he eventually agrees that it will not be a bad thing. Before long, Marie has joined the ranks of novices at the Ursuline convent. Chapter 2. The Buissons, angry that they no longer have Marie to work for them, encourage Claude to make a fuss at the convent, begging his mother to come back. The problem is solved when Claude gets into a Jesuit school in Rennes. Later, he goes to a different Jesuit school in Orléans. After two years, Marie takes permanent vows and becomes assistant Novice Mistress at the convent, taking the name Mère Marie de l'incarnation. She has a dream of going to a place of rocks and forest along with a fairhaired woman. There, a statue of Our Lady kisses her. Père Dinet, her confessor, helps her to understand that the dream means that she is to be a missionary to Canada, called New France. Later, Jesus speaks to her heart and confirms that this is true. She begins to eagerly research the state of the missions in New France, and finds that they are greatly in need of teaching nuns. Read Chapter 3-4 and answer Study Questions. Chapter 3. The Archbishop agrees to allow Mère Marie to go to Canada, if she can find a benefactor. While she is waiting for the benefactor to appear, Mère Marie becomes headmistress of her convent's boarding school. After three years, a widow named Madame de la Peltrie expresses interest in helping Mère Marie's cause. When Madame de la Peltrie arrives, Mère Marie sees with delight that this is the same woman from her dream. Madame explains that she also was told to go to Canada in a dream, and that she was later cured of an illness after she promised St. Joseph that she would go there. The community does not waste time in preparing to set off. They vote on who will go to Canada, and one of the nuns chosen is Mère Saint Bernard, who changes her name to Mère Saint Joseph in thanksgiving that St. Joseph answered her petitions to be able to go on the mission. Chapter 4. The group of missionaries heads to Orléans. There, Mère Marie is going to tell her son that she is leaving. However, once she gets there she finds out that her sister Claude, who disapproves of the mission to Canada, has already told the boy Claude about the mission and has also cut off her financial support for him. He is angry when his mother arrives, but after she explains to him the value of her work and asks him to offer up the sacrifice of her departure, he calms down. He asks his mother to pray for a special intention. Next the group goes to Paris, to complete some preparations for their trip to Canada. While there, they find out that Claude has applied to become a Jesuit priest. Read Chapter 5 and answer Study Questions. Chapter 5. Claude does not get accepted by the Jesuits, but Mère Marie still feels that he will be well taken care of in her absence by Jean Bernières. The group travels to Dieppe, from where the Saint Joseph will set sail to New France. There are 13 missionaries aboard the ship. After a few days of sailing, the ship must weather a terrible storm. All NN2

3 COURSE PLAN THUR of the nuns pray fervently below decks and suffer severe seasickness. Once the storm passes, the Captain throws a party for the passengers, with good food and fireworks. Before long, however, danger looms again in the form of a giant iceberg. The ship manages to escape being crushed by it, thanks to the litany to Our Lady which the missionaries pray. Finally, after two and a half months of travel, the ship reaches Canada. The sisters go ashore to see the Native American children, and are amazed at how dirty they are, but are also impressed with their sweetness. Work on written assignment, due Monday. Notes MNF MON TUES WEEK 2 Chapter Note there are NO vocabulary words for St. Dominic. Study questions may be completed as the student reads or at the end of the week when reading has been completed. Written Assignment: Describe the good things which come about in New France as a result of the missionaries' prayers and works. Read Chapter 6-7 and answer Study Questions. Chapter 6. The travelers take a boat called the Saint Jacques for the 150 miles down the St. Lawrence river to Quebec. The boat is full of codfish, and it rains during the trip, so the missionaries arrive at the city soggy and smelling of fish. The people of Quebec give the missionaries a grand welcome, complete with fireworks and speeches. However, the only housing available for the sisters at present is a two-room cottage. Nonetheless, Mère Marie rejoices at finally having arrived in New France. Chapter 7. The sisters take one Native American girl into their convent, and then become flooded with visitors when a smallpox epidemic hits. They nurse most of their patients back to health. Throughout the first winter in Quebec, the sisters thrive miraculously, and also learn the Native American languages with astonishing speed. In the spring, the ships arrive from France, bringing news that Mère Marie's son is doing well. They also bring more Ursulines, who announce that a group is preparing to found a colony in Montreal. The governor of Quebec opposes the plan, thinking it too dangerous because of the Iroquois. However, Paul de Maisonneuve is determined to do it, feeling he has been called by God. Madame de la Peltrie becomes enthused with the plan as well, and decides to leave Quebec in order to help the settlers in Montreal. Mère Marie is sad, but she offers up the loss of Madame de la Peltrie for her son, who has joined the Benedictines back in France. Read Chapter 8-9 and answer Study Questions. Chapter 8. Madame de la Peltrie leaves for Montreal, taking all of her nice things with her. The neighbors help supply what the sisters are missing. Mère Marie is concerned for the Montreal settlers when she hears that the Iroquois have captured and tortured priests and killed a doctor, named René Goupil. Madame de la Peltrie remains where she is, and all the sisters pray for her. The beautiful convent is finally finished, and it includes a shrine to the Sacred Heart, the first of its kind in the world. Soon, the governor orders Madame de la Peltrie to return to Quebec. She builds her own house near the convent, where she throws parties for the little Native American girls and makes dresses for them. She wants to join the Ursulines along with her maid, but Mère Marie discourages her, believing that she does not actually have a vocation. Chapter 9. For four years, Madame de la Peltrie lives happily alongside the nuns at the convent. Then, one winter night, the convent burns down. Though no one is hurt, the sisters lose NN3

4 COURSE PLAN WED THUR everything. The sisters stay at first with the hospital nuns, and then relocate to Madame de la Peltrie's house. While they are in the process of rebuilding the convent, Mère Saint Joseph becomes ill with tuberculosis. Aided by the prayers of Mère Marie's son, who is now a Benedictine, Mère Saint Joseph dies a peaceful, holy death. Read Chapter and answer Study Questions. Chapter 10. The Iroquois become increasingly hostile to the French settlers, so the governor orders the nuns to leave the convent for the Jesuit house. The soldiers are to use the convent as one of their forts. Mère Marie convinces the governor to allow her and some of the other nuns to stay in the convent to cook and clean for the soldiers. Tension builds in the city as the settlers wait for an Iroquois attack, until they find out that a group of men in a different part of Canada have fought the Iroquois with such valor that they no longer plan to attack French settlements. However, the danger doesn't completely abate until the Bishop of Quebec is able to go to France and request an army to fight the Iroquois. After that, an army led by Alexandre de Tracy subdues the Iroquois enough that the Jesuits are able to continue their mission work among them. Chapter 11. Ten years pass. The Iroquois chief has been converted, and Quebec has grown to a city of a thousand people. Mère Marie decides to step down as superior of the Ursulines because of her age and poor health. She continues with tasks around the convent, however, particularly teaching the languages. We find out that her son Claude has become the assistant superior of the Benedictines, thanks to his mother's prayers and sacrifices. Before long, Madame de la Peltrie becomes sick and dies unexpectedly. Mère Marie looks as though she will follow soon after, for her illness relapses. However, she holds on for several months, still finding the strength to visit with the Native American children and send messages to her son. She dies on April 30, Work on written assignment, due Monday. Notes MNF MON to WED THUR FRI WEEK 3 Written assignment: Congratulations! You have finished reading.

5 ASSIGNMENT ANSWER KEY WEEK 1: Written Assignment: What obstacles face Mère Marie on her mission to Canada. What is Mère Marie's attitude towards these obstacles? The Novice Mistress thinks Mère Marie's feeling that she must go away from Tours is from the devil. Once her plan gets approved by the Archbishop, she cannot find a benefactor.

When Claude becomes reconciled to the plan, he finds out that he will not be able to join the Jesuits as he wanted to. Finally, on the ship to Canada, Mère Marie's group faces a storm and an iceberg. Mère Marie is faithful to the mission she knows God has given her. She prays constantly and never doubts that God will take care of everything. WEEK 2: Written Assignment: Describe the good things which come about in New France as a result of the missionaries' prayers and works. The Native American children learn how to read and write and be good Christians. The sick are nursed back to health, sometimes miraculously. The belligerent Iroquois become peaceful Christians.
