Bishop Olivier de Cagny visits Saint-Jean-Baptiste du Val Iton parish

Bishop Olivier de Cagny conducted his first pastoral visit to the Saint-Jean-Baptiste du Val Iton parish from October 8 to 11, 2026. The four day visit allowed the bishop to meet with various members of the community, including families, youth, and local associations.

During the visit, the bishop met with catechism students, catachumens, and newly baptized members. He participated in activities such as a blessing of school bags, a pizza evening with young people, and a saint hunting game.

The bishop also met with solidarity associations, the sick, and vulnerable individuals to observe local charitable work. These meetings and various prayer services were intended to help the bishop understand the diverse commitments within the territory and discuss the future of the parish mission.
