The pastor in Lourdes didn't believe that St. Bernadette was receiving apparitions of Our Lady. To prove that it really was Our Lady, St. Bernadette was told to ask Our Lady one thing.
Our Lady's reply to Bernadette: "I am the Immaculate Conception"
Father Joe shares about this just outside the rectory where St. Bernadette's pastor lived in Lourdes.
December 8 is the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception. An extraordinary grace received by Mary made her worthy to receive Christ, our Savior.
Fr. Chris and other Marians share why the Immaculate Conception is so important.
Father Joe discusses the "Miracle of the Sun" and the purpose of miracles, which draw us to a deeper faith and, if not a physical healing, then a spiritual one, the healing of our heart and soul.
