Dear Crusaders,
am going on a pilgrimage to Lourdes beginning Thursday, the Feast of St. Raphael, with fellow parishioners, accompanied by an SSPX priest and a daily Holy Mass.
I will take all your intentions with me and pray for them, esp. at the foot of the Grotto and at St. Bernadette´s home. if you wish, you can also PM me with your specific intentions.
The pilgrimage will end on Tuesday by which we will make a short visit at the shrine of St. John Vianney in Ars.
Please say an Ave for me for a fruitful pilgrimage. Thank you very much and may God bless you always.
UIMIH
Flavia

Update (and correction on the number of faithful who participated on Sunday, Oct. 26, 2024: Ca. 20,000)
Thank you all for your prayers during my pilgrimage.
It was a great privilege to be in the company of kind and devoted souls, and a holy priest who rendered daily contemplation on the lives of St. Bernadette, St. John Vianney and Monsgr. Lefebvre, and on the Stations of the Cross, so with the Chaplets of Our Lady, esp. before the Grotto, and a daily Holy Mass. The first station was in Nevers where St Bernadett´s uncorrupted body is laid. She really looks as though she´s only sleeping. There was a notice posted that she wished not to be photographed. On our way back home we stopped by in Ars where the incorrupt body of St. John Vianney lies.
The highlight of the pilgrimage was of course the High Mass on the Feast of the Eternal King celebrated in the Basilica of St. Pius X, followed by the procession of the Blessed Sacrament with around 20 (not 2) thousand faithful from many countries, acc. to estimate of the local parish, preceded on Saturday afternoon by the Way of the Cross on a hill beautifully built to almost resemble Golgotha.
I went twice under the Grotto to present to Our Lady all intentions - yours and mine, and all others, expressed and unexpressed, invoking the intercession of st. Bernadette. You were all in my prayers before the shrines of the two saints, during the Way of the Cross and at the High Mass, and during the Chaplets of Our Lady esp. before the Grotto.
I feel so much blessed to have made the pilgrimage. God bless you always and your loved ones.
Deo gratias! Ave Maria!
