1807 Welcome of Mère Julie by Monsignor Pisani de la Gaude:
1809 Mother Julie leaves Amiens for Namur. Julie’s letter to Sister St. Joseph in Amiens:
(Namur), February 24, 1809
My dear good daughter,
I hope, if it pleases the good God, that this is the last time I shall be writing you at Amiens. […]
The Bishop [Pisani] wants the house at Namur to be the Motherhouse. I am telling this to you in a whisper. He is very happy to have the Amiens community; we are looked upon kindly in the town, where there is much more religion than in other places. […]
Kind regards to everyone who speaks of poor Julie, Sister of Notre Dame of Namur and not of Amiens. […]
