Come Holy Spirit and renew our hearts!
Dear Betharramite fathers and brothers, We do not have a liturgical feast yet to celebrate the Venerable Fr Auguste Etchecopar scj. This Saturday, May 30, we remember the 190th anniversary of his birth at Saint Palais
He is a figure that needs no introduction for us. We all owe him a lot!
I propose that we remember his person, his work and his holiness at the service of the Church in our little family.
To celebrate him in the community, please click on this icon and you will find some material. It is an excellent opportunity for a simple celebration in our communities on the eve of the Solemnity of Pentecost.
Let all of us pray in this period of unprecedented challenges, that the Lord may grant us the grace of Fr Etchecopar’s canonization.
He was instrumental for the re-birth of our Congregation and for the fulfilment of the will of God in a period when Saint Michael’s project seemed to fall through.
Receive my fraternal embrace In Corde Jesu.
Fr Gustavo Agín scj
Superior General
