What's Happening?

France -- a mystery?

Last week we received the following email asking if we knew who this saint was in the chapel at Hazebrouck where Fr. Dehon studied as a young man. No one in the house could postivily identify the statue so we are "appealing to our readers. If anyone can identify this stature please forward your information to: jean-michel.saus@wanadoo.fr. We would appreciate a 'cc' to our website (tomc@scj.org) as well.
