Like every year, on 24 April we celebrate the Feast of St. Benedict Menni, in each and every one of the different areas where our institution is present.
We celebrate this very special day through various initiatives revolving around the figure and legacy of our founder. These are celebrations that help us remember him in a festive atmosphere which strengthens the ties between all of us who are part of the Hospitaller community.
CELEBRATIONS IN THE ENGLISH PROVINCE
On 24 April and the days leading up to it, at our care homes in England residents, collaborators, sisters, volunteers
and relatives leave their tasks behind for a few hours to remember our founding father.
They hold a Eucharist together and toast to a wonderful legate that left us. One of the most anticipated moments of the celebration is the ‘Hospitaller Lunch’, which is a great opportunity to share a wonderful time, to get to know colleagues and residents a little more, and to thank St. Benedict Menni for having made our reality possible in a relaxed way. To wrap up the celebration, various musicians delight them with their artistic and melodious pieces.
