Visit to Ibarre, Oneix and Saint-Palais
From Monday morning, July 4, to Wednesday afternoon, July 6, all the participants in the International Session went to the Basque Country, with a heart full of enthusiasm and curiosity, to drink at the source where everything, for our Founder Saint Michael Garicoïts, began.
These three days were marked by a visit to Ibarre at the birthplace of Saint Michael, “Garacotchea", where a time for prayer and sharing, was followed by the the Eucharistic celebration.
Then the group paid visited Oneix, where the celebration of the Eucharist was followed by a prayer around a cross illuminated by candles that each brothers placed after a thanksgiving in the very house of our Founder.
Finally the group went to Saint-Palais. The visit offered the opportunity to share with the members of the community (Fr. Joseph Ruspil SCJ, Fr. Arsène Noba SCJ and Br. Émile Garat SCJ) who are carrying out their mission there and who live in the house of Fr. Etchécopar.
