During the mid 19th century, the Mother of God appeared to a poor peasant girl in France. Everyone, including her parish priest, was sceptical of this teenager's story. When her priest asked the girl to ask the lady to identify herself, she told the girl she was the Immaculate Conception. The priest was stunned that this poor illiterate girl would say this. The girl is St. Bernadette, and the series of apparitions has been known as Our Lady of Lourdes. Lourdes has been the site of thousands of miraculous healings and conversions. Go to her for intercession.
Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us!
