Portée et contenu
This sub-series is made up of records which detail the daily lives of the Sisters and those who worked with them during the Guatemala mission. There are several accounts containing personal recollections. Reverend Michael Myroniuk wrote about delivering aid to Guatemala after the 1976 earthquake. This account was written in 2014, 38 years after the earthquake occurred. In 1990, Sister Marie Garnier (Joan) McMahon reflected on her time spent in Guatemala. In this account, she discusses the founding of the school and clinic, the building of the convent, as well as everyday life in Guatemala. She wrote another reflection in 2002, which provides a brief history of the mission. She also recorded information about her 2005 trip to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Colegio San José. Dona Cristi de Juarez, the first president of the Parent’s Committee of the Colegio, reflects on her time working with the Sisters and her experience trying to get speed bumps placed in front of the school. Mirna Aroch, daughter of Don Baltazar Aroch, the first Guatemalan teacher to work at the school, provides an account of her father’s time working with the Sisters. One of the Sisters reflects on her trip to El Jute, where she met with Francisca Barillas, the first woman catechist to work with the Sisters in Guatemala. There are also recollections from the prayer group about their experiences with the school and interactions with the Sisters. A special edition magazine covering the 1976 earthquake also comprises this sub-series. The articles discuss foreign aid, the national reconstruction program, and the Guatemalan economy. Newspaper clippings include stories about the founding of the Colegio San José and the Guatemalan military coup. There is also a complete set of annals for this mission. The annals detail the daily lives of the Sisters and their experiences learning Spanish, building and working at the school, creating the nutritional centre, and time spent working with the dentist and local clinics. The annals include photographs.
