Custodians of Beauty

7/15/2022

"Remember that you are the custodians of beauty in the world.” says Pope Benedict XVI is his address to Artists.

The Sacred Arts Guild of Alberta (SAGA) is a community of artists and associates who are interested in the study, preservation, and renewal of traditional methods for creating liturgical and sacred art in the Christian tradition. SAGA presented their inaugural Legacy Project in November 2021 featuring a short film on Sacred Artist Fr. Gilles LeBlanc, retired priest in the Diocese of Calgary. They hope the film will encourage you to explore our faith more through the Sacred Arts.

The SAGA Team is proud to have partnered with Annie Chirka, videographer and editor, with the intention of celebrating those members of our community who are faithful “Custodians of Beauty”.

Dear Fr. Gilles Leblanc!

I was recently inspired by the Holy Spirit to try to discover what had become of you, as we knew each other so long ago. You may not remember me, we went to classes together at what is now called Mount Royal University, together with Christy; we were quite a spiritual trio, as you might recall!
I still possess your letters that you wrote to me during and after seminary, which I treasure. I have been a Roman Catholic now for over 15 years, despite all of the present tribulations in the Church, and rely heavily on the communion of saints. God has been good to me, although not usually in the way expected!
I hope and pray you are prospering in the Lord Jesus Christ, and may He bless you beyond all measure.
I certainly wouldn’t mind hearing from you, dear Brother and Father,
God bless,
Cheryl
