Coordinator Council at Lourdes (5) - sending




The highlight of the council was sending, the official start of two years of the 40 th anniversary provincial and pilgrimages.

The date of February 2, festival of light, was chosen as the best time to perform this ceremony is the Day of Faith and Light communities who were able to resume their meeting in what had been experienced Lourdes is still the beginning of the year and before the first pilgrimage.

all started with a nice speech of Henry Major, punctuated by "Amen, Hallelujah!" resumed in all heart with enthusiasm! Then, with the Father Isaac, we lit the candle for 40 years, decorated the anniversary logo and we have delivered:

- Each Vice-coordinator International a star votive

- Each provincial coordinator and a tealight starry banner his province: This banner is decorated on one side of the drawing of the boat of Faith and Light of which the characters go out to announce the long awaited message of joy and the other side is personalized by the province.

Then we had the mass of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple : All are entered in a procession with candles lit the candle for 40 years, the Gospel has been accompanied by a mime in which the parents of Mary Aurelia came to present their daughter and they were welcomed by Representative Michel Simeon, and this was very touching. The procession of offerings was made "African" with songs and dances.

Finally, after mass, a large fire was lit outside and the fire again, the candle was lit and the candles, symbols of the fiery tongues of Pentecost , were lit the candle, placed on the chair Marie-Aurélie, as representing the drawing of the meeting where the stars fly happy birthday cake from Faith and Light. Everyone went back to his province, with a heart burning with this great fire, to go and carry the message of joy to this meeting. The birthday song is now well known and he will be able to accompany pilgrimages. The candle of 40 years remained at the Cité Saint Pierre and will be rekindled for each of the pilgrimages that will succeed for almost 2 years!

The story does not end there ... in fact, on February 2, there was also a lecture by Jean Vanier, organized by UNESCO to OCH! And many were those who wanted to go listen! We managed to take about thirty participants to UNESCO, and we did feel as among those who came to hear the conference, there were also people from Lebanon, Brazil, United States , Malaysia, Mauritius, Rwanda, Syria ... Marie-Helene was there too and everyone was very happy to greet her, and some were also able to welcome John. All were very happy but exhausted by all these events ... All returns went well! And now for some pilgrimages!
