More Pictures of Lourdes

 

This is one of the churches we went to in the torch light procession. It is so beautiful and inside the paintings on the ceiling and on the walls are so nice.

 

This is where they take the sick for a picnic plus this is were you get the Holy Water. This is just three kilometers from Spain.

 

This is a carer at the St Frai Hospice helping one of the sick Disabled people to eat.

 

This is the Hospital that I was in when I first went to Lourdes. I met a lot of very nice people and they are so helpful they gave all of there time to help the Disabled person and the sick.

 

This is the Hospital that I was in it was called St Frai Hospice and the nuns were very good to you and help you they were so kind people.

 

This is Bernadette's statue which is very nice to see.

 

This is the House at Tarbes where Marie Saint Frai was born on 9 March 1816.

 

This is the dining room of Marie Saint Frai's family house it its so small, but nice and cosy.

 

She had installed Five Homeless people in her sick Father's room, with his full approval. Whenever his health allowed he nursed the patients. It was thus that he prepared to meet his God.

 

Marie Saint Frai's Mother helped to build this Chapel of Notre Dame de Pietat. It is 5 km from Tarbes.

 

This is a statue of the Virgin of the Assumption. Tragically, Jean, Marie's brother caught smallpox and died at the age of 32 on the 20th February 1848. Marie Saint Frai deteriorated rapidly; she wasted away and died, on 15th August 1848 at the age of 53.

 

Marie had to fight hard to have this chapel built. This one was built for her and was consecrated by her priest Monsignor Laurence on 25th July 1860.

 

Father Dominque became spiritual advisor to Marie.

 

I went to Lourdes on the 7th of July and came home on the 14of July and my mother went out as I have been telling her that much about it as you can see she is down at the Grotto putting candles in one for all the family.
