Your Intentions Now
Dear Friend,
On February 11, 1854, Our Lady
appeared in Lourdes, to Bernadette Soubirous, who was 14 years old and
returned to the same place 17 more times. A rosary, which was
described as white, while the cross and chains were gold, hung from
Our Lady’s right arm. In the apparitions, Our Lady of Lourdes appealed
for prayers and penance for sinners and declared herself to be “the
Immaculate Conception.”
Over the years, approximately 100
million pilgrims have visited the Lourdes grotto, seeking a healing
miracle - 70 documented, supernatural healings have been officially
declared by the Church, while over 7,000 miraculous recoveries have
been attributed to the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes.
We can now take a spiritual
pilgrimage to Lourdes and bring our most pressing needs to the Blessed
Mother. Three Holy Masses will be offered for all who
submit their intentions, along with special prayers that will be sent,
beginning on February 9.
For the 32nd
World Day of the Sick, which is also February 11, Pope Francis
published a message entitled: “It is not good that man should be
alone.” Healing the Sick by Healing Relationships. Let us strive to
reach out to those who are sick, vulnerable, the disabled, as well as
those who are suffering mentally and are alone.
Please include petitions for all
you know who are ill, so that Our Lady of Lourdes may intercede for
them. Please also include a petition that Cardinal Burke may receive
an abundance of grace and in thanksgiving for his continued good
health.
Let us now look to Our Lady
of Lourdes, who is the Star of Hope and prays to the Sacred Heart of
Jesus on our behalf, for nothing will be impossible for
God.
Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
