THE MAGDALEN ASYLUM. A YOIOE FBO9I MOUNT MAGDALA AN APPEAL. IN appealing for subscriptions for the FIRST MAGDALEN ASYLUM in New Zealand, the Sisters cf the "Good Shepherd ’’ doeire to express, through me, their sincere gratitude to the inhabitants of this City and the Colony generally for the kind 00-operation afforded them since they commenced the great work to which their liven are devoted in their temporary residence, Maneheiter Street North. Honrly we meet with a poor Magdalen, tired of a minapent life, seeking a shelter, and finding no security against the biting tblaits of renewed temptation, turns away with the weight of the world’s accusation, erith the world’s condemnation, and becomes the victim of an unholy impulse, which cannot be recalled without a sigh nay, without a tear, Kindly, therefore, bear in mind—1. A most desirable site has been acquired for the Magdalen near Christchurch. 2, His Eminence Cardinal Moran laid th e foundation-stone at "Mount Magdala on the 18th February of last year, in th presence of 6000 people, and the firs portion of the Asylum is nearly oom plated. 3. The advantages of the Magdalen will be extended to all New Zealand and elsewhere. 4, The waifs and the wanderers who are rescued from the paths of misery and sin are not asked to what creed they belong. It is sufficient that they need succour. 6, The inmates of “ Mount Magdala” and the Good Shepherd Nuns placed oyer them will remember always, with lively gratitude, the benefactors of the institution. 6. Subscriptions may be paid either in part or in full, according to the convenience of subscribers. 7. If, therefore, it were ever true to say “that he gives twice who gives quickly,” it is particularly so on the present occasion, in order that soon we may see another House of the Good Shepherd added to the 160 Homes scattered over the globe in which more than 4000 RbuOlßiibeb bestow their deyoted care on 20,000 Chiidbbh and young girls, while a judicious channel will be opened for the outlay of the Funds entrusted to the ISSIIXUTION. 8. The Sisters of the Good Shepherd will be grateful to all those who encourage their friends to subscribe to the funds of the Magdalen Asylum, The fayor of an early response will enable me to bring to a speedy conclusion an institution from which circles of good must emanate to exercise a salutory influence oh the future of the Colony. BUSSORIRTIONB will also be received by Mbbbbb A. J. WHITE and H. H. LOUQHNAN ; and the Rev. Mother Prioress Convent of the Good Shepherd, Manchester Street North, Cheques and P.O. Orders to be made payable to me, L. M, GINATT, S.M., Mis. Rect„ Managing Trustee. Christchurch, May, 1887.
