Breton in demand for weddings, baptisms
More weddings, baptisms and funerals are being requested in the Breton language.
Morbihan priest Ivan Brient has had three Breton weddings and two baptisms in 2017, and none before. The demand is led by the young, he said. “It’s not a political, independentist statement, but an attachment of the heart to people’s family roots.”
