Football Tournament and Faith – A Joyful Celebration at Olton Friary

Football Tournament and Faith – A Joyful Celebration at Olton Friary

At first glance, football and faith might seem like an unlikely pairing—but here at Olton Friary Parish, we discovered just how beautifully they can come together. As part of our Jubilee Year celebrations, we organized two special football tournaments: one for the youth on 7th June and another inter-church tournament for adults on 6th July. Both events were held right here on the Friary Lawn, and they turned out to be a great success!

“He lived (Saint Michael) in an era in which the principle of autonomy was becoming absolute, breeding what he called “the spirit of insubordination” (an unruly and rebellious spirit of revolution, not prophetic but sectarian). So the shepherd of Ibarre proposed the opposite: the “religious spirit,” founded on the great examples in Sacred Scripture in which the creature discovers the joy of obeying out of love for his Lord and Creator and throws himself unreservedly into His service.” (Fr. Gustavo Agín SCJ)

“We Betharramites must be men and women who value and live intensely our vocation (whether religious or lay): and we do so with and from the heart. Although the world today is driven by other “intelligent” and very reasonable algorithms, it is not right to devalue or ignore “the reasons of the heart that the mind ignores” (Pascal).” (Fr. Gustavo Agín SCJ)

Our Lady of Betharram

At the shrine of Our Lady of Betharram, Saint Michael Garicoits received inspiration to found a new religious institute. Like him we shall find in the Virgin Mary a wonderful model of a life consecrated to God, “always disposed to do what God wanted and willing to submit to all God did”.
