Sisters of Ste-Anne

I just discovered a cemetery close to home where the nuns of the Ste-Anne Congregation are buried. I found it very moving to see all these identical headstones.

Even in death they are equal and the same....

and there are two nuns buried in each plot - interesting. I adore the collection of angels from your last post and the unassuming simplicity of the Sisters' burial grounds.

Is this St. Anne de Beaupré? I was in that church during my visit to Quebec and Montreal many years ago. I'm curious as to whether this is realted to the church.

Maria, I am not sure. Ste-Anne-de-Beaupré is in Quebec City and this cemetery is in Montreal. But then again it might be a big congregation!
