Memorial of Our Lady of Lourdes.
11 February through 16 July of 1858

The memorial commemorates the 18 apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to St. Bernadette Soubiroux.

Prayer to Our Lady of Lourdes

O ever immaculate Virgin, Mother of Mercy, Health of the Sick, Refuge of Sinners, Comfort of the Afflicted, you know my wants, my troubles, my sufferings; deign to cast upon me a look of mercy. By appearing in the Grotto of Lourdes, you were pleased to make it a privileged sanctuary, whence you dispense your favors, and already many sufferers have obtained the cure of their infirmities, both spiritual and corporal. I come, therefore, with the most unbounded confidence, to implore your maternal intercession. Obtain, O loving Mother, the grant of my requests. I will endeavor to imitate your virtues, that I may one day share your glory, and bless you in eternity. Amen.

All that began has ended well with our celebration of St. Rita in the Desert. Our parish altar society managed to organize and put St. Rita back on her alcove so that others may come and petition her for their impossible cases. St. Rita, pray for us!
