Since September and until the summer of 2024, when the Paris Olympic Games will take place, a chapel has been installed in the Parisian church of La Madeleine. Named “Our Lady of Sportsmen”, professional and amateur athletes can have their equipment blessed there.
The Church is preparing for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Since September and until next summer, a chapel has been installed within the Madeleine church in Paris. “A particularity: it is intended for athletes, amateurs and professionals alike. Its name is Our Lady sportsmen. Anyone can enter.”, indicates journalist Samuel Ollivier, present on the set of 8 Heures, Tuesday November 28. It is possible to have your sports equipment blessed.
Joël Thibault, the chaplain of champions
“We wanted to dedicate a place so that low, medium, high and very high level athletes can have a place to speak, to listen, a place where they can also pour out a little of what they are humanly, because “They also have a religious life or a spiritual life. This place did not exist, and so we created it.”, explains Philippe Marsset, auxiliary bishop of Paris. It is also possible to request a sports chaplain. Joël Thibault is very famous in this field. “Chaplain of Champions is the title of his book. He notably accompanies Olivier Giroudand he will undoubtedly be accredited for the next Olympics.”adds Samuel Ollivier.
