Lourdes Pilgrimage offers a deeply spiritual journey to the site of the Marian apparitions to St. Bernadette in 1858. Pilgrims gather to pray at the Grotto of Massabielle, participate in the healing baths, attend multilingual Masses, and take part in the iconic candlelight processions. It is a moving experience of faith, healing, and community in one of the most sacred places in the Catholic world
