Once again, our event was lovely. Our Lord and our Lady truly blessed us with the hospitality of the Lourdes ladies, the heartfelt presentation and prayers of the pastor Father Jim Theby, a blessing with the first class relic of the visionary St. Bernadette, and for each woman a small bottle of water from the miraculous spring at Lourdes. Thank you to all who assisted. May God be glorified and sanctify His priests!
