Pilgrimages in and around Lyon, France

Br. Marcel describing the
interior of St. Bruno’s.
All the buildings are in
need of major restoration,
but the money to do that
comes from the state, not
the parishes, and the state
is obviously reluctant to
part with the money.
Although over 80% of the
people in France are
Catholic, less than 10%
are practicing, so the
churches are poorly
funded.
