Sunday, July 28, a new event to mark the Jubilee Year: the feast of Our Lady of Betharram.
A solemn Eucharistic celebration brought together in the Shrine of Betharram many priests and lay people who came to this holy place to renew their faith seeking the protection of St. Michael Garicoïts.
The celebration was presided by the Superior General, Fr Gaspar Fernandez Perez scj, and a large number of Betharram Fathers from France, Italy, Spain and Jordan joined him . Many parishioners, pilgrims, priests and well-wishers were also present along with lay associates of the “Petit Choeur Saint-Michael" who led the singing and the members of the Fraternity "Me voici" who renewed their commitment. The Religious, who were celebrating their jubilee year of ordination and religious life, were remembered honored during the celebration.
There was also a group of young "MEJ" (Eucharistic Youth Movement) who played and sang a song of thanksgiving.
It was a real moment of grace, full of sunshine; an experience of fraternal joy and of prayer in a shrine that had just returned to its normal schedule after the floods; an opportunity to renew one’s commitment in the great family of Betharram under the protection of Our Lady.
