The body of the Blessed Eugénie Joubert has been placed in a chapel dedicated to the Church of Saint-Gilles since a ceremony presided over on June 30, 2024, by Monsignor Delville, Bishop of Liège, organized by Father Philippe Delaume, Pastor of U.P. “Liège-Hauteurs,” with many parishioners. Mr. Damien de Laminne, Lieutenant for Belgium of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem, accompanied by Knights and Ladies of the Order, honored the event with their presence.
A chapel in the Church of Saint-Gilles is dedicated to Blessed Eugénie Joubert, with a candle burner on either side of the altar; the text of a prayer is offered as an aid to meditation.
Nearby, in the Saint-Gilles Cemetery (37, Cour Saint-Gilles), the site of the Blessed’s grave is marked by a cenotaph that is still revered, with many ex-votos present.
