TheoBar Lux presents: Online with God

When?

Thursday 3 May, 19:30-21:00

Where?

Mäertchen on Place Guillaume, at the Schlaw’iner tent !

What?

Since the start of the digital era, people and institutions alike have undergone huge transformations; from the comfort of homes and the way people think straight to world-stage politics.

But how does the Catholic Church adapt with these changes brought by the internet? in what ways is the Church’s role of evangelization facilitated by the use of masscommunication? And what do these digital implication mean for the Church?

Who?

Father Michel Remery will help us find an answer to these questions. Ordained priest in 2004, he is the author of the book “Tweeting with GOD”, translated in many languages, and was a member of an advisory committee on new media and young people at the Vatican office for Internet affairs. Since 2018, Father Michel continued his priestly mission in Luxembourg, where he is the national youth chaplain.

Interested?

Octave Pilgrimage Mass – 29 April 2018

MdPdDThe Octave of Our Lady – the high point in Luxembourg’s liturgical year – got off to a sunny and joyous start last Sunday 22 April with the Messe du Peuple de Dieu. Our community was well represented by our first communion children and their families as well as many others from the community in a procession from St Alphonse to the Cathedral (see picture).

Our community is now invited to join the pilgrimage Mass for the central sector of the Parish of Luxembourg Notre-Dame at 18:00 on Sunday 29 April in the Cathedral. The Mass will be in several languages, including English. There will also be processions from the Church of St Michel and from the Glacis Chapel.

Here is the invitation from Canon Tom Kerger, Parish Priest and Dean of Luxembourg:

Chers confrères,
chers collaboratrices et collaborateurs,

Par la présente, j’ai le plaisir de vous inviter avec votre communauté à la MESSE DE PÈLERINAGE À L’OCTAVE du Secteur Centre de la paroisse Lëtzebuerg Notre-Dame, dimanche, le 29 avril 2018 à 18.00 heures à la Cathédrale.
Il serait beau si nous pouvions vivre ce moment vraiment comme une communauté des communautés, et c’est pour cela que nous avons prévu aussi l’utilisation de plusieurs langues dans la cérémonie. La première lecture se fera en allemand ; la deuxième lecture se fera en anglais ; l’évangile en français. A la prière universelle et pendant la prière eucharistique, il y aura aussi plusieurs langues.

Deux chemins de procession sont prévus:
– la première procession partira à 17.15 heures à partir de la Chapelle du Glacis
– la deuxième procession partira à 17.15 heures à partir de l’église Saint-Michel

Tout en espérant vous retrouver au plus tard à cette occasion et en vous remerciant de votre collaboration pour cet événement important de notre être paroisse ensemble, je vous envoie mes meilleures salutations!

Chanoine Tom Kerger
