ABOUT US
"To announce the Gospel here and to the peripheries" appealed Jorge Bergolio, now Francis, just elected. In response to this urgent invitation, Perifmedia is launched in 2014.
Apt for mutual support, for a reassuring or warming word, that stimulates or helps to remember, listening to here or to the peripheries, Perifmedia wants to meet others. It brings together people from diverse backgrounds: artistic, scientific, educational and financial, all of whom share the desire to witness to the Good News. Its tools are varied: reports, testimonies, feature articles, pilgrimages, artistic events, conferences, family days and the prayer network Impact J.
Périfmédia is always happy to greet new collaborators, welcome!
"Let us set out! With only Francis' mandate, dynamic, without constraints, let us go from the centre to the peripheries! Proclaim, in season and out of season (2 Tim 4,2), of He who has given and will reclaim our lives.
THE TEAM
Périfmédia is a volunteer endeavour in which collaborators participate based on their availability. We present our main collaborators and also thank all those who are involved in one way or another in the realization of our different projects. It is thanks to their great generosity, their commitment as well as their prayers that Périfmédia can pursue its mission.
Webmaster
One of the first women to become interested computer sciences in Quebec, Marise spent all of her career involved in computer programming. Applied and methodical, her numerous years spent working within a team of developers has made of her an invaluable ressource for Perifmedia.
Blogging, cameraman and video editor
Married with children, he was involved in a catholic group for families for over 20 years. After a career as a chemist, he hung up his lab coat but not his mind. His contribution to Périfmédia spans from writing to photography and video editing. His scientific experience and rigour are a valuable asset.
Organization and Event Management
Her very active left brain makes her a fearsome organizer, while her creative right brain makes her an artist with multiple talents: designer, choreographer, singer and musician. For Dolène, art, in all its forms, is a privileged place to meet God. She is responsible for the choreographic and musical part of the Interiority in motion project.
Camera, Drone Piloting and Video Editing
Carpenter, Jean-François is comfortable on construction sites of all kinds. He operates his drone and his jigsaw with equal ease… well almost! Because of his generosity, Périfmédia will now be able to capture images from the "skies above"!
Content Management
Fanciful and imaginative, Pierrette likes to put a bit of humor in the proclamation of the Good News. Patient and assiduous, with a good sense of order, she combines these natural qualities with a proven experience in an engineering office, revising, editing and formatting texts on the Périfmédia website.
Blogging and Consulting to the editorial team
Her search for meaning led her to a philosophical's walk, then to various pastoral functions with young and adult groups. She also uses extensively different forms of art, especially music and singing to promote the Gospel Message. As an educator, it is important for her to instil joy and beauty.
Audio Editing and Foreign Correspondent
Doctoral student in biochemistry, Dominique divides her time between Boston, Moscow and Montreal. She is also a passionate violinist with an absolute ear. Nevertheless, the Absolute God remains her genuine quest and, at the very core of her busy schedule, her priority is to be dedicated to others. Her talents are many and Périfmédia is delighted!
Photography and Technical support
A customs broker, Vincent is meticulous, versatile and imaginative, as well as being good at drawing and cinephile. He knows how to use the latest technological innovations in order to offer a wide range of services to Périfmédia. In all events, we can always count on his patience and his dedication to face challenges encountered through ongoing activities.
Financial Administration and Translation
"Lord, you have entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more. […] You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your Master's happiness." To make optimal use of ressources, whatever they are, is not only her job but also her charisma. In her opinion, each person is a priceless treasure.
Beekeeping and Blogging
Passionate about the French language, with pinpoint precision, Marc handles the pen with ease and elegance, transposing on paper, in prose or verse, his inspirations highlighted from his contemplation. With boundless curiosity about beekeeping, and informed on various topics, he devotes his free time to writing and… tease his close neighbours!
Choregrapher, dancer, and workshops animator
Her vibrant dynamism leads us beyond our usual limits and perceptions. She helps discover the vital forces of the body and the spirit lying dormant in each of us. With her proactive approach “The Bolt Movement”, she brings out the best in everyone, with tact and skill, regardless of age and disabilities. She draws her inspiration from the desire to witness her love for God. Ana is choreographer for "Interiority in Motion", a Périfmédia original production. She likes to share her thoughts and lends her assistance on texts, interviews and workshops facilitation on behalf of Périfmédia.
Special Collaboration
International travel is part of Clément's routine at work. He has become, so to speak, Périfmédia's official ambassador for his peripheral projects, such as pilgrimages and reports. With a warm nature, he loves people, is a friend of all and even the grandfather of nine grandchildren. If you take a look at his busy schedule, you will find that his first morning appointment is always a heart-to-heart with God!
