| Since
its origin in 1995, The Friends of Prayer Committee has accomplished
many tasks in its efforts to preserve the Enfant-Jésus
Church
and its site: It is important for us to mention that all the projects that have been accomplished as well as those in progress are done in full consultation with The Saint-Boniface R. C. Archiepiscopal Corporation and the administration of the Ste-Anne Pastoral Region. We are also very grateful to all the people from the region of Richer who participate in our ongoing activities, our work bees and who contribute time, energy as well as material and financial support.
And the work continues . . .

Ongoing Projects and Events We are presently
in the process of having the church roof redone with new cedar
shingles. This is a major capital project that is proving to be very
costly. We are hoping to cover the costs of this project with fund
raising activities, donations and grants from government and
corporations.
