Na Lydia O'Kane
I nā mahina i hala iho nei, pono nā kānaka a puni ka honua e hoʻololi i ke ʻano o ka noho ʻana, ka hana a me ka pule pū kekahi ma muli o ka maʻi maʻi Coronavirus.
ʻAʻole naʻe i hoʻōki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka Pilgrimage Lahui Farani ʻehā lā i Lourdes.
Ma ka Poakolu, ka 147th Ua hoʻomaka ka paʻi ʻana o ka huakaʻi me ka Misa Hemolele ma ka Ekalesia o St Bernadette.
ʻO ka hanana, i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e ka Congregation of the Assumptionists, e holo ana mai ka 12-16 ʻAukake a loaʻa iā ia ke poʻomanaʻo: "Going to the Source of Love".
ʻOiai ke hele nei ka huakaʻi hele, ʻaʻole e ʻike kēia paʻi i ka lehulehu o nā makahiki i hala ma muli o nā palena o ka nohona.
ʻAʻole wale ka poʻe maʻi
ʻO Fr Vincent Cabanac ka luna hoʻomalu o ka Pilgrimage Lahui Farani. Ua wehewehe ʻo ia ʻoiai ʻo nā pilikia e pili ana i ka maʻi maʻi, ʻo ka huakaʻi hele i kēia makahiki he "hui" a lākou i makemake ai e mālama.
I kēia makahiki, he 500 wale nō ka poʻe pilgrims e hele mai i ka hanana. Akā, hiki i nā malihini ʻē aʻe ke hahai i nā hanana nui a pau ma ka pūnaewele, a ʻo ka poʻe maʻi e hiki ke lilo i ʻāpana o ka huakaʻi ma o ka lekiō a me ke kīwī.
ʻAʻole mākou makemake i ka poʻe maʻi e "manaʻo mehameha", wahi a ka Luna Hoʻokele Lahui, a ʻo ia ke kumu e loaʻa ai kēia hoʻopili kikohoʻe mai iā lākou i ka Laa.
ʻOiai ua hoʻololi ʻo COVID-19 i ke ʻano o kēia hui ʻana, aia nō ka nui o nā hanana i nā lā ʻehā. Aia ka papahana i ka heluhelu ʻana i ka Rosary, nā ʻahamele, nā huakaʻi, nā kiaʻi a me nā hōʻike.
Kau ʻia ma kahi
No nā kumu olakino, a me ka mahalo i ka hele kino a me ka nohona, ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻauʻau ma ka Hale Laa i kēia manawa. Akā ua kuhikuhi ʻo Fr Cabanac ma kahi hōʻailona hōʻailona, hiki i nā kānaka ke hele mai i ka ʻauʻau a hiki iā lākou ke holoi i ko lākou mau maka a me nā lima.
Makaikai a Kadinala Parolin
Ma ke kono a ka poʻe nāna i hoʻonohonoho i ka huakaʻi lāhui, ke kipa aku nei ke Kakauolelo o ka mokuʻāina ʻo Vatican ʻo Cardinal Pietro Parolin i ka Halepule ma Lourdes e alakaʻi i ka Mass for the Feast of the Assumption ma ʻAukake 15.
Ua kono ʻia ʻo ia i ka hale pule ma mua o ka puka ʻana o ka coronavirus.
ʻO kēia ke kolu o ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana o ka Cardinal iā Lourdes mai kona lilo ʻana i Kakauolelo Mokuʻāina ʻo Vatican. I ka makahiki 2017, ua kipa aku ʻo ia i ka Shrine ma ke ʻano he ʻelele o Pope Francis no ka World Day of the Sick; a ma 2018 no nā lā kūʻai aku ʻo St Francis de Sales.
Ma ke kamaʻilio ʻana e pili ana i ka noho ʻana o Cardinal Parolin ma Lourdes, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Fr Cabanac, "He hōʻailona koʻikoʻi loa ia no mākou ke kipa ʻana o Cardinal." Me kona hele ʻana, hāʻawi ʻo ia i kahi hōʻike hoʻoikaika i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me ka haʻahaʻa.
"ʻO ka Cardinal," wahi a ke Kahuna Assumptionist, "ke hāʻawi nei i kahi ʻōlelo ikaika o ka pule ʻaʻole wale no Farani akā no ka honua, e hōʻike ana i kona manaʻo ma ka Grotto o Massabielle a he mea nui loa kēia kipa ʻana iā mākou, no Farani a no ka Ekalesia.
