Mgr Matthieu ROUGE, Bishop of Nanterre wrote the following in his pastoral letter of June 01, 2020: “We need to go ever further in spiritual proposals and formation with a view to mission and creative involvement in the city”.<\/em><\/strong>.

The mission of our shrine chapel is clear and in keeping with the charism of our community, the Oblates of the Virgin Mary. We could say that we also make our own the orientation given by John Paul II to the rectors of shrines in 1981: <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

” May the whole life of sanctuaries promote personal and community prayer, joy and recollection, listening to and meditating on the Word of God, the truly worthy celebration of the Eucharist and the personal reception of the sacrament of Reconciliation, fraternity between people meeting for the first time, concern for helping poor regions and poor Churches with their offerings, participation in the life of parishes and dioceses <\/em> “.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Let’s not forget that Christian shrines are signs of God, of his irruption into human history. Each is a memorial to the Mystery of the Incarnation and Redemption. By visiting a shrine, the faithful constantly rediscover the story of God’s love for every human being and for all humanity. We also know that, despite the secularization of our societies, shrines are called upon to be “spiritual high places”, all the more so if they speak to the minds and hearts of people, believers and non-believers alike, who all feel “the asphyxia of a society closed in on itself and sometimes in despair” (J-P II).<\/em><\/strong> (J-P II). <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Father Fran\u00e7ois Lapointe omv<\/strong> was born in 1963 in the Mauricie region of Canada, in Grand-M\u00e8re, near the city of Trois-Rivi\u00e8res in south-central Quebec. He has been a priest since 1992 and a member of the Institute of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary (omv) since 1985. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

He holds a degree in nursing from CEGEP Ste-Foy, near Quebec City (1984); a bachelor’s degree in philosophy from the Pontifical Angelicum University in Rome (1987); a bachelor’s degree in theology from the Pontifical Lateran University in Rome (1991); and a master’s degree from the Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al in pastoral theology, practical section, with a thesis on the socio-religious profiles of young adults.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAfter working as a summer camp counselor (1978-1984), he worked as a nurse in a retirement home and a high school (1984-1985). He also coordinated four World Youth Days (WYD) for the Diocese of Montreal (Canada) and all the dioceses of Western Quebec: Chestochowa, Poland (1991), Denver, USA (1993), Manila, Philippines (1995) and Paris, France (1997). The Quebec delegation ranged in size from 30 to 545 young people, depending on the location of these world gatherings (over 130 countries represented and up to 4 million young people present). At WYD 2000, he also oversaw two projects: the preparation of another group of young people from Quebec, and the international coordination of a gathering of young people from 6 countries. This was the first gathering of young people with significant ties to our Oblate communities around the world. A similar project took place for the WYDs held in Toronto, Canada, in 2002 and Cologne, Germany (2005), Madrid, Spain, in 2011 and Rio, Brazil, in 2016. More than 150 young people from nine nations normally take part in these projects.

He has coordinated and supervised five experiences of missionary awareness and cooperation in Brazil, in the phases of formation, realization and integration on return (1994-1995-1996-1998-2007). He founded a youth movement, “Solidarit\u00e9-Jeunesse”, which brings together young adults aged 17 to 30.

After serving as parish vicar (1993-1995) and member of the diocesan youth office (1992-1997), he was coordinator of youth ministry for a pastoral sector of the Montreal diocese (1998-2001). He also coordinated a special committee, the Comit\u00e9 des Am\u00e9nagements Pastoraux, for the same sector, to bring about a redefinition of the Church’s mission and a restructuring of parish services and places of worship (1997-2000). \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHe was also vice-delegate of the Rector Major of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary for the Canadian region (1997-2001) before being assigned in 2001 to Fontenay-aux-Roses as spiritual animator of R.U.L. students and responsible for the formation of postulants of French-speaking origin (France and Africa). In 2008, he became Director of the R.U.L., and in 2018 rector of Chapelle Ste-Rita.

He accompanies various Christian journey groups and works with many couples, including former students. His charisma is much appreciated.

Today, he continues in his various roles, while since 2022 he has been serving his religious community internationally as “General Councillor” and “General Bursar”. He is also confessor at Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris.

Father Fran\u00e7ois is known for his open and warm personality, his optimism and humor, his simplicity and his organizational skills. Observant and discreet, he quickly gets to know his interlocutor and knows how to be a faithful and dynamic ally. His human and Christian knowledge makes him a thinker and advisor who cares about the integral growth of all. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Originally from Quebec, Canada, Father Yves joined the Oblates of the Virgin Mary in 1978. He studied philosophy and theology in Rome, and was ordained a priest in St. Peter’s Basilica by Pope John Paul II on June 2, 1985. His first pastoral experiences were with the Nice community, before he came to Fontenay aux Roses to take over from Father Richiardone, founder of the work there. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Local rector of the Oblate community during the final phase of the work, Father Yves will collaborate with Mr. Jolivel, the architect, and Sister Michelangela Balan (pddm), for the liturgical furnishings of the chapel. He will commission Peter Kostner to create the statues of Saint Rita and the Holy Family. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As first rector of the chapel, he has scheduled its inauguration and blessing, inviting for the occasion Bishop Ambrosanio of Spoleto, the diocese to which Cascia, homeland of Saint Rita, belongs. The bells were also blessed. Shortly afterwards, the chapel was consecrated by Mgr Fran\u00e7ois Favreau, then Bishop of Nanterre, on November 21, 1992. <\/div>\n

After a brief stint in Canada, Father Yves then ministered in Italy for 22 years before returning to Fontenay in 2018. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

His school career took him to the general BAC (A-levels) before he went on to do a BTS in Banking. Parallel to his studies, he had at heart the incessant call to become a religious and priest with the Oblates of the Virgin Mary (OMV). He discerned and was accompanied by a priest as he drew closer to God. He is “seduced” and fascinated by the Word of God, the friendship of Christ, the beauty of the Church. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In 2015, he entered the seminary of the Oblates of the Virgin Mary in Rome, to begin his formation as a religious and priest. It was in the same city that he earned a three-year degree in philosophy, after which he left for Pignerol to complete his novitiate year. He returned to Rome to begin his theology studies, before returning to France to complete them at the Jesuit Centre S\u00e8vres in Paris. <\/p>\n

He made his perpetual profession on November 1, 2022 at the chapel-sanctuary of Sainte-Rita, and was ordained a deacon on December 7, 2022 in Nice. He was ordained priest on October 8, 2023 at the Sainte-Rita chapel-sanctuary in Fontenay-aux-Roses, where he has been ministering ever since. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

An Oblate religious since he made his religious profession, according to the three vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, he shares with all his religious brothers the community life and contemporary challenges of announcing the Good News of Christ forever alive. He transmits the life of the Spirit according to the charism of the heirs to the charism of their Founder, the venerable Father Pio Bruno Lanteri. <\/p>\n

Brother Francesco’s life can be summed up as follows: he was born in Malaysia before immigrating to Italy in the early ’80s. He underwent a profound conversion and was baptized as an adult, before joining the O.M.V. He pursued the stages of formation in Rome and Fontenay-aux-Roses: postulancy, novitiate, temporary and perpetual vows. He spent long periods of time in Italy and France, taking on a wide range of activities in the service of the common good. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Originally from Normandy and Midi-toulousain on her parents’ side, Emilie was born in Paris, where she grew up and studied. She has been married to Rapha\u00ebl for 20 years, they have four children aged between 7 and 18 and have lived in Fontenay-aux-Roses for 20 years. They are faithful members of the Saint-Pierre Saint-Paul parish and the Sainte-Rita chapel. Father Fran\u00e7ois baptized three of their children. <\/p>\n

Emilie holds a Master’s degree in contemporary history from the Sorbonne, and a DESS (Master’s) in “heritage professions”. She worked for 2 years for Herm\u00e8s Sellier in the cultural heritage department.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

After the birth of her eldest son, Emilie chose to leave her job to look after him, then two daughters were born and for around ten years she was a stay-at-home mom. She has volunteered at her children’s school (A.P.E.L., member of the school council, pastoral animation), at the parish (awakening to the faith, catechism, preparation for First Communion, mass animation) and has completed the initial training cycle for catechists of the Nanterre diocese. <\/p>\n

She then worked as a V.D.I. (independent door-to-door salesperson) for 5 years. At the same time, after volunteering at her children’s school, she was hired as a school pastoral animator. Preferring this path, she gave up door-to-door sales and decided to train in this field. In 2021, she obtained the Dipl\u00f4me Universitaire d’Animateur en Pastorale Scolaire (DU-APS) from the Institut Catholique de Paris (ICP), as well as the “Charg\u00e9e de mission pastorale” certification (R.N.C.P. title), after which she continued her training at the Institut Sup\u00e9rieur de Sciences Religieuses (IER), where she obtained the Dipl\u00f4me Universitaire d’Etudes Religieuses. She is continuing her training with a view to acquiring the Canonical Baccalaureate in Religious Sciences. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Since her youth, \u00c9milie has been involved in a number of voluntary youth movements: L’Eau Vive and the Association des Guides et Scouts d’Europe (A.G.S.E.). As spouses, to bear witness to the vocation of marriage, she and her husband were involved from 2013 to 2019 in the vocations service team of the Nanterre diocese (of which Father Fran\u00e7ois was also a member). Since 2018, they have been very involved in scouting, and more particularly in the Guides et Scouts d’Europe association, in which they have chosen to give service. <\/p>\n

\u00c9milie has joined the Oblates of the Virgin Mary to help with the shrine’s development, animation and challenges. She will oversee the activities of the Boutique as well as pilgrimages. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
