Novenas
Novena to Our Lady of Lourdes
In 1858 the Blessed Virgin appeared eighteen times to the fourteen-year-old Bernadette Soubirous at the grotto of Massabielle in Lourdes, France, identifying herself as "the Immaculate Conception.
Pray each day for nine days:
O ever Immaculate Virgin, Mother of Mercy, Health of the Sick, Refuge of Sinners, Comfortress of the Afflicted, thou knowest my wants, my troubles, my sufferings. Deign to cast upon me a look of mercy.
By appearing in the Grotto of Lourdes thou wast pleased to make it a privileged sanctuary whence thou dost dispense thy favors, and already many sufferers have obtained the cure of their infirmities, both spiritual and corporal.
I come, therefore, with the most unbounded confidence to implore thy maternal intercession. Obtain, O loving Mother, the grant of my requests (state your intention).
Through gratitude for thy favors, I will endeavor to imitate thy virtues, that I may one day share thy glory. Amen.
Our Lady of Lourdes, pray for us.
St. Bernadette, pray for us.
