What Lourdes Means to Me: Martina and Mark's Story

What Lourdes Means to Me: Martina and Mark's Story

Martina and Mark's story.

LOURDES for many is a place of encounter, healing and peace. Every pilgrim finds something different and everyone returns home with their own story about their visit to Lourdes. In this series, pilgrims and volunteers with the Oblate Lourdes Pilgrimage share some of their experience and what Lourdes means to them. The Missionary Oblates were the first group to organise pilgrimages to Lourdes from Britain and Ireland and have been organising pilgrimages to Lourdes since 1883. Every year pilgrims join us from Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales, and the Channel Islands. This year, we celebrate a very special anniversary of the pilgrimage - 140 years! Join us in 2023 for the 140th anniversary of the pilgrimage. All are welcome!
