How to talk about this special Christmas 2020?
Publicity
The Pilgrim
chose resilience with a blanket, in his parents' arms, a baby born on the day of the explosion in the port of Beirut.
The Christian weekly invites its readers to cultivate joy, wonder and the spirit of sharing.
Samuel Lieven
, editorial director of Le Pèlerin and
Catherine Lalanne
, editor-in-chief who
edited
this special issue.
For its part,
Le Cerf
has opted for humor, history and culture, sensationalism and seriousness with the publication of a pastiche:
Jerusalem Magazine - Year Zéro - December
and, on the cover, this title
Mysterious Birth in Bethlehem
.
Editorials, reports, interviews, testimonies, surveys, but also fashion, sport, the art of living, tourism and crosswords… This imaginary magazine makes us relive “the News” in Palestine on the eve of the nativity .
Its editor is journalist and historian of the papacy
Bernard Lecomte.
Concert of the Maîtrise Notre-Dame de Paris broadcast
on France 2 and the Catholic TV channel KTO on Christmas Eve
.
This is the first concert recorded in the cathedral since the fire in April 2019. The singers will be accompanied by soprano Julie Fuchs, cellist Gautier Capuçon and Yves Castagnet on the positive organ (rented for the occasion).
Henri Chalet,
director of the Maitrise de Notre-Dame
