The pastoral theme \u201cI am the Immaculate Conception\u201d gives us a chance to reflect on forgiveness, because the presence of Mary opens us up to hope. Forgiveness granted or received opens us to life. We become free again. The Sanctuary therefore suggests we have a celebration of forgiveness based on Mary\u2019s gaze: a gaze which is always open to hope and fruitfulness. Let\u2019s pray to Mary that, reassured by her tenderness and by the mercy of God, we may receive the sacrament of confession.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-befe2a1\" data-id=\"befe2a1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-985fd6b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"985fd6b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/reduit_LNEWS-PAGE-2-PHOTO-CONFESSION-\u00a9VINCENT_3-200x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-224859\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/reduit_LNEWS-PAGE-2-PHOTO-CONFESSION-\u00a9VINCENT_3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/reduit_LNEWS-PAGE-2-PHOTO-CONFESSION-\u00a9VINCENT_3-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/reduit_LNEWS-PAGE-2-PHOTO-CONFESSION-\u00a9VINCENT_3-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/reduit_LNEWS-PAGE-2-PHOTO-CONFESSION-\u00a9VINCENT_3-187x280.jpg 187w, https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/reduit_LNEWS-PAGE-2-PHOTO-CONFESSION-\u00a9VINCENT_3.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0ee3cc6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0ee3cc6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>The Church <span style=\"color: #e8a700;\">is a family<br \/><\/span><\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-392dbd0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"392dbd0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>You might like to join the Family of Our Lady of Lourdes.
