Cathorico : le chant du coq catholique

Quand les engagements occupent le premier plan, quelle place reste-t-il à la Bonne Nouvelle ? Revue de presse et lecture critique catholique — 31 octobre 2026 🇬🇧 English summary Le Cri’s recent publications emphasise the political and social dimensions of Christianity. A Catholic assessment must also consider evangelisation, sacramental life, personal conversion and the Church’s moral teaching. Ecological responsibility and opposition to discrimination can unite believers and non-believers; the distinctive Christian proclamation concerns Jesus Christ, salvation and communion with God. Une ligne éditoriale clairement engagée Les dernières publications du Cri accordent une place importante aux rapports entre christianisme et politique. Le numéro de novembre annonce une enquête sur les réseaux d’extrême droite dans l’Église catholique. Les articles d’octobre mettent notamment en avant les évangéliques de gauche, les parcours de déconstruction religieuse et les lectures de l’Évangile ce...

  Après Léon XIV, l'Église française doit transformer la ferveur en décisions concrètes Vendredi 30 octobre 2026 🇬🇧 English summary From 3 to 8 November 2026, the French bishops will assemble at Lourdes under the presidency of Cardinal Jean-Marc Aveline . Their deliberations will address the pastoral consequences of Pope Leo XIV 's recent apostolic visit, Catholic education , the protection and reparation of victims of sexual abuse, the preparation of World Youth Day in Seoul, and the Church's responsibilities amid social and political tensions. With France approaching its 2027 presidential election , the bishops are also expected to examine the country's public life and the challenges posed by recent legislation on the end of life . The essential question is whether the Catholic Church in France can translate renewed religious enthusiasm into enduring pastoral action. ⛪ Une assemblée particulièrement attendue Du 3 au 8 novembre 2026, les évêques de France se réuni...

  À quelques jours du 1er novembre, paroisses et diocèses multiplient veillées, missions et fêtes pour rappeler que la Toussaint ne se résume pas au lendemain d’Halloween English summary As All Saints’ Day approaches, French Catholic communities are seeking new ways to make holiness visible in a largely secular culture where Halloween now occupies much of the public imagination. In Lyon, the Kerygma Camp begins on 28 October, followed by prayer evenings, missionary initiatives and a “Holy Wins” celebration for young adults. Rather than merely opposing Halloween, these events try to present Christian holiness as joyful, accessible and capable of speaking to a generation for whom Catholic culture can no longer be taken for granted. La Toussaint commence avant le 1er novembre Nous ne sommes que le 28 octobre, mais dans plusieurs paroisses la Toussaint a déjà commencé. À Lyon s’ouvre aujourd’hui le Kerygma Camp , cinq jours de formation consacrés au cœur de la foi chrétienne, au témoig...

  En Bourgogne, la 51e édition du pèlerinage des routiers témoigne d'une jeunesse catholique attachée à la foi, à la fraternité et au service. Mardi 27 octobre 2026 🇬🇧 English summary From 22 to 25 October 2026, some 2,300 registered Rover Scouts of Europe gathered in Vézelay, Burgundy, for their fifty-first annual pilgrimage. Beneath the ancient vaults of the Basilica of Saint Mary Magdalene, these young men renewed a Christian tradition rooted in prayer, fraternity, sacrifice and service. Under the Gospel exhortation “He that hath ears to hear, let him hear” (Matthew 11:15), the pilgrimage invited its participants to discern their vocation and to embrace their responsibilities as Christian men. At a time when France is often portrayed as an increasingly secular nation, Vézelay bears witness to another reality: a younger Catholic generation seeking neither political dominion nor worldly prestige, but a coherent life shaped by faith and commitment. The challenge for French Catho...

  Au lendemain d’une lettre de la CEF aux jeunes et d’un nouveau texte romain sur la transmission de la foi, l’Église de France se retrouve devant le même constat : il ne suffit plus d’hériter, il faut recommencer à transmettre English summary French Catholicism faces a double challenge on 23 October 2026. The French Bishops’ Conference has addressed young Catholics after weeks of student protests and violence, urging them to engage without hatred and recalling Pope Leo XIV’s words: “You are the saints of France.” On the same day, the Vatican published Venite ad me , a major document acknowledging that the intergenerational transmission of faith has broken down in many secularised societies. Together, both texts point towards a Church that can no longer rely on inherited Catholic culture and must rediscover personal witness, community and the proclamation of the Gospel. « Vous êtes les saints de France » Trois semaines après la grande veillée du Stade de France avec Léon XIV, la Co...

Le 22 octobre, fête de saint Jean-Paul II, ramène cette année à un anniversaire français : quarante ans après Lyon, Ars, Paray-le-Monial et Annecy, une autre génération vient d’accueillir Léon XIV English summary On 22 October, the Church celebrates Saint John Paul II . In France, the date has a particular resonance in 2026: forty years have passed since his apostolic journey to Lyon , Ars , Paray-le-Monial and Annecy in October 1986 . That visit combined popular gatherings, Christian heritage, ecumenism and the beatification of Antoine Chevrier . Only weeks ago, Pope Leo XIV visited a France profoundly changed by secularisation , yet still capable of gathering immense crowds. Comparing the two journeys reveals not the disappearance of French Catholicism, but a transformation in the way faith is transmitted and publicly expressed. Quarante ans entre deux voyages La mémoire liturgique de saint Jean-Paul II est fixée au 22 octobre , date de l’inauguration solennelle de son pontificat e...
