Our Lady of Lourdes

February 12, 2010 by Lena {JOYfilledfamily} Filed Under: Marian, Monday's with Mary, Our Lady of Lourdes

Things didn’t go as planned desired.  We made due nonetheless and had a blessed feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes.

Sparkles (Bernadette) and Sweetie (Mary) acted out Meredith’s retelling of the apparition of Our Lady.  It was the first time we made reference to Monday’s With Mary.  It’s beautiful.

Here are the treats we had in honor of Our Lady of Lourdes.  Sparkles was in charge of finding the correlation between the treats and feast day.

Our Lady appeared to Bernadette in the Grotto of Massabielle.
Piglets in a blanket are always enjoyed by the little ones when they get to make them on their own.  They like to add cheese.
One day, the Lady told the girl to drink of a mysterious fountain within the grotto itself, the existence of which was unknown, and of which there was no sign. But Bernadette scratched at the ground, and a spring immediately bubbled up and soon gushed forth.
The Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes in southern France is the most visited pilgrimage site in the world — principally because of the apparent healing properties of the waters of the spring that appeared during the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to a poor, fourteen-year-old girl, Bernadette Soubiroux.
What can I say!  I can’t resist Sonic Happy Hour and I’ve been craving all things tart.  It’s very refreshing!

Holy Mary, Mother of believers, Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.

Amen.

    Lena, love the title of your blog. It was perfect that you were the first to comment on my post about the joy-filled life. Also, my hometown parish is Our Lady of Lourdes. My daughter’s Confirmation name is Bernadette. I love Our Lady of Lourdes! Great treats associated with it — very fun!

    Roxane – Thanks for stopping by. Bernadette is my Confirmation name too. We all enjoyed the treats. None of which, were planned. The day was full of simplicity and JOY.
