I announce that on January 21, I will again dedicate my family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. May Saint Louis, model of just and virtuous Kings, protect and save France! (translated)
I am not unaware of how heated the debate on secularism is in our country. (translated)
It is with great emotion that I will see the Holy Father celebrate Mass at the very site of the execution of King Louis XVI. On Saturday, France will partake in the peace of a ceremony open to all. The Place de la Concorde will thus become a place of reconciliation for the French people. Today, fully embracing this Catholic heritage received from my forefathers, I am proud to participate in this event filled with Love and Hope. Find my commentary on this occasion in the Journal du Dimanche. (translated)
