You already know that, for over 20 years, this exceptional workshop has offered the opportunity to write icons for a weekend in the crypt of our sanctuary, with the necessary contemplation and continuous prayer. <\/p>\n\n<p>We&#8217;re preparing a unique three-day event featuring an exhibition of icons in their various stages of preparation and completion, a lecture on the theology of icons and their canons, and the LIVE creation of a fresco on wood, accompanied by a musical concert to foster the atmosphere of interiority required for such a creation. And much more&#8230; <\/p>\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll keep you posted on the final program. You&#8217;ll all be invited! <\/p>\n\n<p>[Thanks to the two ladies, Elizabeth and Jeanine, two friends of the ecumenical cause, who made it possible for us to gather around a table with a refined West Indian menu].<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chapelle-sainte-rita.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Photos-Sanary-Fabian-_33_-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.chapelle-sainte-rita.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Photos-Sanary-Fabian-_33_-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.chapelle-sainte-rita.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Photos-Sanary-Fabian-_33_-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.chapelle-sainte-rita.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Photos-Sanary-Fabian-_33_-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.chapelle-sainte-rita.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Photos-Sanary-Fabian-_33_.jpg 1210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p>Frescoes in the Saint-Nazaire church in Sanary-sur-Mer by renowned fresco artist P\u00e8re Jean-Baptiste.
