Mother/daughter, grandmother/granddaughter day

Find peace and quiet together

Mother/daughter, grandmother/granddaughter day

Pray and take stock together

« Before I was born, He called me by name! » (Isaiah 49:1)
Do you call your mother or daughter several times but find the conversations going in circles? Or perhaps you're not quite sure what to say when you're together? The Lord himself often used the image of motherhood to speak to us of his love. So let us take the time to (re)discover this unique relationship that the Lord entrusts to us, to thank him for it and perhaps also to ask him to purify it.
This day is offered to you as an opportunity to find quiet together, in the Lord's presence, to pray and take stock.
The day is shaped by the community's prayer life and unfolds in a peaceful, fraternal atmosphere.
It is also possible to meet with a Sister for a more personal conversation. And all of this in the beautiful setting of Montmartre, just steps from the basilica, to gain a little perspective and receive every grace.
If the date does not work for you, please don't hesitate to contact us to arrange this special time on another date.
