Zusters en routeDe congregatie van de Aanbidding van de Gerechtigheid Gods Zusters van Christus Verlosser bestond al bijna tachtig jaar toen zich in 1903 donkere wolken samenpakten. Een groot conflict tussen de Franse staat en de katholieke kerk leidde ertoe dat veel ordes en congregaties hun toevlucht zochten in het buitenland. In het najaar van 1903 arriveerde de eerste zusters van de aanbidding in Linne en Stramproy. Zij hadden geen middelen van bestaan en spraken

De congregatie van de Aanbidding van de Gerechtigheid Gods / Zusters van Christus Verlosser bestond al bijna tachtig jaar toen zich in 1903 donkere wolken samenpakten. Een groot conflict tussen de Franse staat en de katholieke kerk leidde ertoe dat veel ordes en congregaties hun toevlucht zochten in het buitenland. In het najaar van 1903 arriveerde de eerste zusters van de aanbidding in Linne en Stramproy. Zij hadden geen middelen van bestaan en spraken geen Nederlands. Zij gingen echter niet bij de pakken neerzitten en begonnen met kleuteropvang en zieken- en bejaardenverpleging. Onderwijs en zorg bleven zo’n honderd jaar de voornaamste werkterreinen van de zusters. In 1925 en 1936 werden respectievelijk kloosters geopend in Geulle en Baarlo.


In tegenstelling tot moederland Frankrijk bleef de congregatie in Nederland bescheiden van omvang. De betekenis van de zusters voor de plaatselijke gemeenschappen was echter groot! Als kleuterleidster, onderwijzeres, zieken- en bejaardenverzorgster hebben zij zich weggecijferd ten dienste van de mensen. Hun werk werd na de Tweede Wereldoorlog professioneler. In Geulle en Stramproy stichtten de zusters de bejaardenhuizen Ave Maria en Rust in Roy. Ook in het Afrikaanse Burkina Faso waren de zusters van Christus Verlosser succesvol werkzaam. Niet in het minst dankzij de steun uit Nederland.


In Zusters en route wordt de geschiedenis van de congregatie in Nederland beschreven, waarbij de ontwikkelingen in Geulle meer nadruk krijgen.

Deze uitgave is een samenwerkingsverband tussen de stichting Vrienden van Ave Maria, Antoine Jacobs en uitgeverij Leon van Dorp.

Comfortable and stays cool
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 1)
Great pillow. When i opened it, i noticed a strange smell, i assumed its the smell of whatever they use to make the pillow stay cool. You have to fluff it for a good amount of time to make sure the cooling agent spreads well in the foam. Is what i assumed atleast. Its a perfect amount of softness for me. Pair it with some bamboo pillow cases and you got a good night of sleep

Comfortable and Supportive, but Adjust the Filling
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2), Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
I’m very happy with this pillow. The size is big and it feels soft while still providing good support, perfect for midnight scrolling on TikTok. One thing to keep in mind is that it can feel a little too tall if you use all of the filling that comes with it. The good news is that you can easily adjust the amount of filling to find the height that works best for your sleeping position. Once I customized it, it was much more comfortable. Overall, great quality, comfortable, and worth the purchase.

BEST PILLOWS EVER!!!
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
I am very picky with my pillows because I have a bad neck and I can never seem to find a good pillow. But I tried this pillow because it had everything I was looking for and the price was great! You get two of them and they are absolutely awesome.! normally I would need to lay on two pillows to try and get comfortable but with these pillows I just lay on one and I wake up with no neck pain. They really have a nice cooling effect. They actually puff up immediately after opening them. All you have to do is just shake them up and the pillow just puffs straight up.. It comes with extra cushioning if you want it to make it firmer and if you don’t want it as firm as it is, you can actually take some out. It really is such a beautiful pillow. It’s perfect in every way to me being such a picky pillow person. You just lay your head down on it and it forms around your neck and your head and when you get up, it goes right back to its normal form. It doesn’t get flat and I love it. I completely recommend this to anyone who is a person who has a hard time finding a really good pillow.

Top of the line, best pillows Ive ever had
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
These pillows are top of the line! I bought them in 2024 and they are still fluffy. When they lose a little fluff, you just punch em around a little bit and voila, like new again. They have kept their shape cery well and do great for cooling. I haven't had to add more filling yet either. I just laid my head on one and thought, I need to do a review cause everytime i lay on these pillows its like clouds. My head is heavy and this is relief :-D
