Morning Prayer with the Oblate Family: September 16th

With Gerard Bennett

Good morning everyone. We join Gerard Bennett of the Oblate Lourdes Pilgrimage in Inchicore, Dublin, for morning prayer. Tomorrow, please, God, we will be in Lourdes on pilgrimage. We will be at the grotto of which this one, here in Inchicore, is a replica. What a privilege and grace that will be. And we know that there must be very many of you listening and joining in our morning prayer who would like to be with us. Lourdes is a very special place. It’s a sacred place. We will not be leaving behind those who are able to be with us over the last two years through technology now and always, you are a part of the pilgrimage.

Preparation for the Lourdes pilgrimage is almost complete – please keep the pilgrimage in your prayers as we prepare to travel this coming Saturday and we also invite you to join us online if you aren’t able to travel at this time.
