France - Taizé

This pilgrimage gave an opportunity to 202 young people from the Toulouse Diocese to develop a better understanding of oneself and of others in an atmosphere of prayer, formation and relaxation. The 20 young people from the parish of Pibrac, who took part in this pilgrimage, were guided by Fr Emmanuel and Bro Marius (Betharramites). The aim of this pilgrimage was to help the youth coming from different colleges and chaplaincies to live together in a spirit of true brotherhood in mutual respect. This aim is at the heart of the Taizé community, which is made up of men who have said "yes" with their own life in following Christ, through community life and celibacy, in a true and simple life style.<br /><br />
