40 years of Betharramite presence
On April 17, the Betharramite community of Castellazzo di Bollate (Milan, Italy) celebrated the 40th anniversary of its presence in the Parish of St. William.
At 11:00 a Mass of thanksgiving was celebrated at the Shrine of Our Lady of the "Fametta", presided by the Superior General, Fr Gaspar Fernández Pérez, SCJ, and concelebrated by Fr Egidio Zoia SCJ and the Dean of the Pastoral Zone of Bollate. The celebration was animated by the parish choir.
At 15.00, in one of the halls of "Villa Arconati", during a cultural event, 40 years of the presence of Betharram were revisited and the Italian translation of the book "St Michael Garicoits, a spiritual teacher of our time” was officially released. Apart from the translator himself, Mr Mario Grugnola, a lay betharramite, about one hundred people were present at this event. All were quite happy to hear about the spiritual and social commitment of the Betharramite Fathers, who still play a significant role in this area.
We are proud of our brothers who are so precious in the local Church and among the people at Bollate.
