Welcome to our 3rd Coronation Newsletter. The first few months of 2021 were also hampered by corona in our preparations. But we are not staying put. You can ascertain that with this Coronation Newsletter. That said, we are really looking forward to getting back together physically planning and working on preparations. Hopefully that will be possible soon. We wish you a blissful Easter, happy Easter days and much reading pleasure.

Easter celebration from Basilica on TVL
|
|
|
|
The corona - measures do not allow celebrating Eucharist together at Easter this year either. Only 15 attendees were allowed. The Eucharist celebration at 10 a.m. in the Basilica at which Monsignor Patrick Hoogmartens will preside will be broadcast live on TV Limburg. So we will be able to celebrate Easter together, albeit digitally. Special to mention : Possibly this Easter celebration will take place in the Romanesque cloister.

It is a tradition that during the Coronation celebrations in the Tongers Beguinage, the merry folk play Fioretti is performed. This open-air spectacle deals with the fortunes of Friar Juniperus, disciple of St. Francis. The Fioretti it was first performed at the 1981 Coronation. So we now count the 7th edition at the following Kroningsfeesten

Thanks to the group leaders
|
|
|
|
The group leaders of our procession groups are busy preparing. This in circumstances we are not used to. Phone, email, whatsApp, teams, zoom and other types of digital contacts are no longer foreign to them. The Coronation Committee greatly appreciates this. Therefore, on the occasion of Easter, we delivered a small tasty gift to each board member, via the presidents of the procession groups. See also first photo. In this way we want to give them a heart for all their valued efforts....
