The National Hospitality Association “Notre-Dame de la Voie” (“Our Lady of the Way”) was founded in 1949 by railroad workers to accompany and serve the sick, the elderly, and people with disabilities during railroad workers’ pilgrimages to the Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes.

But that’s not all! With over 300 members and a presence throughout France, the Hospitality Association is organizing more and more gatherings.

At its general assembly last March, three young members—Jean-Baptiste, Michel, and Emmanuel, from Paris, Lyon, and Montluçon respectively—were presented by the “Friends of Blessed Eugénie Joubert” with the book “Prier 15 jours avec la bienheureuse Eugénie Joubert : une catéchiste de feu”.

This book was also given to Sister Geneviève-Dominique, a Sister of the Hospitality who has worked for many years on the Hospitality’s pilgrimages to Lourdes and serves as a catechist in the Paris region.

Thank you to the National Hospitality Association “Notre-Dame de la Voie” and its president, Muriel Lanchard, who has repeatedly spoken about Eugénie Joubert to her members.
