On March 10, feast of Saint Marie Eugénie of Jesus, the Assumption family is invited to unite in a special celebration from Notre-Dame de Paris. Due to the large number of participants expected, everyone is expressly asked to follow the celebration online only, in order to facilitate organization and allow all to experience the Eucharist with greater comfort and quality of participation.
This gathering will spiritually bring together religious sisters, lay people and educational communities, along with friends of the Assumption, in a shared movement of prayer and thanksgiving, renewing together the charism we share.
So that the entire Assumption family worldwide can participate, the Eucharist will be livestreamed at 10:00 a.m. (Paris, UTC+1). The online connection will allow participants to follow the celebration with clarity and recollection, encouraging a shared international participation across countries and communities.

All communities and groups are encouraged to share the link widely so that no one is left out of this moment of Church and family.
We also invite everyone to share photos showing how each group or community lives the event, by sending them to us or posting them on social media using the hashtag #MME2026.
The March 10 feast is a privileged opportunity to live one of the central dimensions of Assumption spirituality: communion. Even though we may be physically distant, shared prayer gathers us in unity as we give thanks for the life and mission of Saint Marie Eugénie.
Following the celebration online is not a secondary option but a concrete way of expressing the universality of the charism: an international community praying together and walking in hope toward the Kingdom, faithful to the spirit transmitted by our foundress and lived today in many educational and pastoral contexts, in harmony with the evangelizing mission of the Church.
We invite each community to prepare this moment simply: by gathering for the livestream, creating a shared prayer space, or sharing afterwards the experience lived together. Share photos of this moment by sending them to us or posting them on social media using the hashtag #MME2026.
Because wherever we are, we remain one single family gathered to celebrate, give thanks and renew the mission of the Assumption.
