Paris (France), 09/14/2024, Sr. María Esperanza Olarte.- On the occasion of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the French Church is actively participating to support the world of sports, which is why the Holy Games route was established from July 25 to August 11, along with Holy Extra-Ordinary (for the Paralympic Games). I was fortunate to be part of the first Holy Games team with the Dominican Family from July 25 to August 2.
Jerusalem, 09/14/2026, Sr. Rosario Garcés.- La Maison d'Abraham is a former French Benedictine monastery built in 1903 and originally used as a seminary for the Syro-Catholic Eastern Church. In 1963, the Patriarch of the Melkite Greek Catholic Church called Monsignor Jean Rodhain, President of Secours Catholique and Caritas Internationalis, to ask him to build a Cité-secours in Jerusalem to welcome poor pilgrims from the Middle East.
Dassasgho (Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso), September 14, 2024, Sr. Viviane Compaore.- This is the day that the Lord has acted; let it be our joy and our delight, Hallelujah! Two consecutive days of festivities in the Vice-Province of Africa are being celebrated in thanksgiving for the religious professions of some of our sisters. Indeed, the entire Vice-Province sings the wonders of the Lord for so many blessings: He has deemed it fit to increase the number of Sisters even more through the first religious profession on Friday, September 13, 2024.
