You are warmly invited to our annual Outdoor Mass at 11.15 in the garden of the Archbishop’s residence, 3 Avenue Marie-Thérèse, Luxembourg. (There will be no Mass at 11.15 in the Church of St Alphonse that morning).
Mass will be followed by a BBQ. If you would like to bring a dessert or cake (something easy to serve), please email Annette Power by clicking here
We are looking forward to a beautiful sunny day, but it is forecast to be very warm, so please remember hats, sunshades etc.
Corpus Christi, Thursday 20 June 2019: The Parish of Luxembourg Notre-Dame invites all members of the different communities to celebrate the feast of Corpus Christi with a festive Mass and a procession of the Blessed Sacrament. Mass will be celebrated at 19:00 in the church of Saint Michel (Rue Sigefroi). After Mass, we will follow the Blessed Sacrament in procession to the Cathedral to receive the final blessing. After the celebrations you are welcome to stay together for a verre d’amitié (glass of friendship) in the inner courtyard of the Cathedral.
Two of our parishioners have just returned from Bonnevaux Abbey describing it as a beautiful place. There is an opportunity to join a meditation retreat at Bonnevaux 24-31 July 2019. Please click on the link below for further information.
A regular attender at our Masses at St Alphonse is looking for help in finding a job in Luxembourg. She is well-known to me, and I can recommend her from a faith-engagement point of view.
She writes “I was born in Africa grew up in France, and graduated in New York. After over fifteen years in the fund business in Luxembourg, I went to Africa with the entire family.
We are back now and I looking for a position. I am flexible and a quick learner. I would very much appreciate if you could keep me in mind when you meet people that might need my service.
I would not mind relocating or working with international charity organisations or any institution involved in African development.
I will happily send you my CV, in English.”
If you have any useful hints/leads/connections, please contact the parish office and we will put you in direct contact. Thank you.
