Fri., 5/20 - Nevers to Annecy

We started the day with the St. Bernadette, considered to be the most well-preserved of all the incorruptibles. We then made our way to Paray-le-Monial to visit St. Margaret Mary Alocoque (she received instructions from Christ on how to practice devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus) and St. Claude Columbiere, spiritual director to St. Margaret Mary Alocoque.  We then visited St. John Vianney in Ars, the patron saint of priests.  Fr. Ray celebrated Mass in the crypt of the Basilica.
