Women's Retreat
Sandy Cove
Northeast, MD
April 13-15 , 2012
Our Speaker: Andrée Seu
Andrée was born Andrée Mailloux in a French Canadian enclave in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, in 1951, and schooled in the Catholic tradition for sixteen years. She graduated from Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts, in 1973.
Through a series of unlikely events, she met Francis Schaeffer in Switzerland and read The God Who is There on the flight home. She attended Westminster Theological Seminary for two years, having registered as a favor to a friend who was rejected for studies there and who begged her to take good notes and pass them on to him.
Graduating in 1979, she married and had four children. Her husband died in 1999, whereupon through another series of unlikely events, she began writing essays for World magazine, having flopped as a census taker and school teacher.
Andrée is also amazed to be paid for daily blog contributions to World's online magazine at www.worldontheweb.com.
