Oblate Lourdes Pilgrimage Day 2: Morning Prayer and Reflection

Friends, thank you for joining us for our morning reflection and Day 2 of our pilgrimage.

We join Kay Curran, a member of the Lourdes Pilgrimage Team for our reflection. Kay reflects on what Lourdes means to her at the Grotto in Inchicore – how Lourdes and Our Lady helped her deal with difficult times in her life, including her recovery from serious illness, and why she returns there as a volunteer in thanksgiving to Our Lady and to help and accompany assisted pilgrims and one another in experiencing the peace and healing that Lourdes has to offer.

Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us!

‘Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And why has this happened to me, that the mother of my Lord comes to me?’ – Elizabeth said these words in greeting to Mary.

Our opening mass will take place at 10am, and we will join together for the Angelus and lighting of the pilgrimage candle at 12noon. Our evening program for Saturday is the Pilgrimage Rosary and Virtual Torchlight Procession with the Oblate Family in Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales and the island of Jersey and all those joining us from where ever you are.
