OUR LADY OF LOURDES

France 1858

"I am the Immaculate Conception," proclaimed the Blessed Virgin at Lourdes, thus confirming the dogma defined four years earlier by Pope Pius IX. Her confidante, the poor and humble Bernadette Soubirous, had the honor of contemplating the Immaculate Virgin 18 times between February 11 and July 16, 1858. The Blessed Virgin descended into a rocky hollow at Massabielle in the Pyrenees Mountains of southern France. "Prayer, penance, penance, penance," the Immaculate Virgin repeated. She also requested a chapel. As proof of the truth of Her apparitions, She caused a spring to well forth whose waters have healed great numbers of sick and infirm people. Many sinners have been converted at this privileged shrine.
