Grande Fête annuelle de la Saint-Julien

We are all invited to celebrate the patron saint of our diocese, and to remember those who have gone before us in the faith.

Every year, we have a tradition of welcoming our German friends from Paderborn.

Everyone is welcome to join in the celebrations at Le Mans or in their parish liturgies.
