Submit
Your Intentions Now
Dear Friend,
The three days of Holy Masses and
prayers invoking Our Lady of Lourdes will begin tomorrow, Friday,
February 9. Have you submitted your intentions?
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.
Tomorrow, we will begin 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.
February 11 is also the World Day
of the Sick, which reminds us to see in our sick brothers and sisters
the face of Christ who, who suffered greatly during His agony and
crucifixion. 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 many graces be bestowed upon Cardinal Burke 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,
