- Holy Family of Bordeaux

Welcome to our Holy Family Website!

We invite you to spend some time with us as we share our story with you.
The roots of our Family go back to 1820 and to a young priest of Bordeaux, Pierre Bienvenu Noailles who, even during his seminary days, dreamt of creating an Association in which all Christians could find their Gospel path of life under the patronage of the Holy Family.

"In my dream
the 'Holy Family' appeared as a large leafy tree,
bearing the flowers and fruits of all seasons
and birds of all colours and countries.
Each one had its own song,
but all were singing in beautiful harmony,
as if with one voice.
They seemed to say,
Glory be to God Alone." (PBN)
