In order to
fulfil this mission, it manages a pastoral team committed to sharing the faith
and finding a balance between its tourist, cultural and religious activities.
We have
created a schedule for our priests to be available to the faithful who wish to
confess, speak or have religious objects blessed. We have also chosen the
Notre-Dame du Sacré-Cœur Chapel as a space for reflection, meditation and
silence. To facilitate prayer, the Blessed Sacrament is exposed from Monday to
Friday, as well as on Sundays.
I aspire to
create a warm environment at the Basilica where everyone is welcomed with
respect. Our dedicated employees ensure that the premises are respected and
that visitors and parishioners are welcomed properly. We wish to accompany
everyone interested in faith education. I hope that your wedding day will be
the most beautiful memory of your life and that the baptism of your children
will be the celebration of a new life, a life received from God. We accompany
in faith, respect and hope those who request a funeral for a loved one.
The
Basilica manages its activities, both religious and tourist, in a spirit of
openness to all and in a spirit of solidarity with the most disadvantaged
members of society. We also encourage people to get involved in local Christian
communities.
