The objective of the pulpit is to refresh their spiritual life in order to get out of the routine, the dryness, the sadness, the acedia, through a rereading of their life of faith and their founding charisma, through a deepening of the resources of the Christian Tradition.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Wounded people who are looking for a new spiritual impetus after having gone through trials, disappointments, ruptures, dissatisfactions in the exploration of paths that proved to be illusory. The objective of the chair is to offer them a path of spiritual healing in order to acquire freedom of choice, decision and orientation in Christ in the Holy Spirit; to give them reference points by calling upon the Christian Tradition to help them name deviations or disorientations and to deepen the knowledge of self in God and the knowledge of God in oneself<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Chairholder: Sister Catherine Aubin, O.P<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Catherine Aubin, a Dominican nun with a doctorate in theology, teaches spiritual and sacramental theology in Rome and in Montreal.
