A ceremony in two stages

The ceremony will take place first in the Sainte-Marie-Madelaine basilica in Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Beaume, in the Var. “I have had the opportunity to celebrate many masses and this is part of our ministry, it is not exceptional. What is exceptional is obviously the history surrounding this affair”, declared Monsignor Dominique Rey, bishop of the Fréjus-Toulon diocese, to our colleagues.

“We know that this ceremony will be media-friendly and we are expecting a lot of people”, concluded Florian Maxime, parish priest of Saint-Maximin. Once the mass is over, the child will be buried in family privacy at the cemetery in the village of Haut-Vernet
