The Grotto in Lourdes remains a place of prayer and peace since the Mother of God appeared there to St. Bernadette Soubirous 18 times in 1858. Over six million pilgrims from around the world visit Lourdes each year coming to this holy place known for documented cures, healings and conversions.
Our Mission:
"To extend the invitation of the Immaculate Conception as given to Bernadette in the Grotto at Lourdes; to serve the sick and suffering at Lourdes and at home following the loving example of St. Bernadette in simplicity, humility and obedience."
