Vive la France Catholique!
Bravo!

Pèlerinage de Chrétienté, J2, Dimanche
there is this:Samedi, 17.00 - Ils viennent d’Ecosse.
Bienvenue à nos amis les écossais, qui ont traversé les mers en ferry pour rejoindre notre pèlerinage ! Pas moins de deux jours de trajets leur ont été nécessaires, témoigne un séminariste de la communauté « The Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer » (Les Fils du Très Saint Sauveur), installés au Nord de l’Ecosse. Neuf membres de cette communauté (comptabilisant 17 pères et frères) se sont joints à notre marche. Cette congrégation, rattachée à la règle rédemptoriste et depuis toujours attachée à la forme extraordinaire, a rejoint le giron romain suite au Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum en décembre 2007.

Thank you so much for these reports about the Chartres Pilgrimage.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see the full kto programme. Can you supply a link?
Many thanks, and prayers,
Jane
Dear Jane
ReplyDeleteI came across this here while checking the links of the Pilgrimage site on the post:
http://lesalonbeige.blogs.com/my_weblog/2011/06/la-soutane-est-indispensable-pour-un-pretre-catholique.html
and then tracked it down on Gloria TV. I don't know if there is a larger clip. He's a very convinced priest.... we need so many more.

Dear Fr. Michael Mary,
ReplyDeleteThank you for answering me so quickly.
I'll check out your guidelines.
Yes, a very convinced and brave priest. I think there ARE many more waiting in the wings, but having to keep their heads down for the time being. Many more than I think is generally realised or even suspected.
Thank you for all that you do and for your fine blog.
With the promise of my poor prayers,
Jane

With the assurance of my poor prayers,

Dear Father Michael Mary,
ReplyDeleteI've found out who the priest is. He is Cure of a flourishing parish of St Vincent de Paul in Marseilles. The clip is from a longer programme on the kto series 'L'Esprit des Lettres' They interviewed him about his recently published book, 'Hommme et Pretre'. And his name is - wait for it - Pere Michel Marie (Zanotti)! His site is at:
http://www.delamoureneclats.fr/
It's the type of site where you click to enter from a front page. Once you're in you can find access to view the kto programme. I,ve linked to his site on ny Oasis and am looking forward to watching the video this evening.
Apparently on the eve of Pentecost he sent 62 adults from his parish for Confirmation, I suppose at Marseilles Cathedral.
Thank you for wetting me off on this search.
Tout d'abord, je me permet d'apporter une précision, même si il est vrai que celle-ci n'a pas grande importance:
ReplyDelete"Je ne sais quoi" est plus proche de l'usage.
Je vous souhaite le meilleur pour la suite, et vous remercie encore pour ce que vous avez fait.
Je suis un jeune catholique, baptisé à l'âge de 17 ans, et je me pose quelques questions sur Dieu. Pourrais-je me permettre de vous poser une question ou serait-ce abuser de votre temps?
En espérant une réponse, même si je suis conscient que vous avez sûrement d'autres choses à faire.
Cordialement,
Merci pour la correction.
ReplyDeleteOui vous pouvez nous écrire en utilisant le bouton de contact sur la gauche de l'écran.
Le temps passé à la clarification de notre foi n'est jamais un abus de temps; au contraire, elle constitue une excellente utilisation du temps.
Car une des premières questions du catéchisme est la suivante: Pourquoi Dieu vous a-t-il créé et mis au monde?
La réponse est: Dieu m'a créé et mis au monde pour le connaître, pour l'aimer, pour le servir et pour acquérir, par ce moyen, la vie éternelle.
Oh, I made a similar faux pas when I was in La Loye (Dole region), France, in the year 2000! I got excited about the whole town celebrating Armistice Day and les pompiers forming a guard of honour in the church during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. After the ceremony at the town's War Memorial, where the name of each of the city's fallen was announced and was followed by the cry "Died for France!", I exclaimed: "C'est si bon!" and a woman said to me "they only say that in Hollywood"!
