Part of the France team for a few years, Wendie Renard lived a very important moment which she confided to our colleagues fromWorld Eleven : a meeting with the Pope : “My meeting with the Pope was an extraordinary moment. From a very young age, with my parents, I have always been steeped in faith. I did the catechism, I did everything. Every Sunday, my mother said to me: “No football without mass at home!”. I was naturally led to this path. This path continues, today, to guide and enlighten me. I have absolute trust in God, 100%, I know what he brings me. And once again, I experienced an exceptional moment when I met the Pope. Very few people can see it, I was able to experience it with my family and my adviser. Without football, I would not have had this opportunity. I have a great chance, we take advantage of it.”
