Prayer to Our Lady of Lourdes
In 1858 the Virgin appeared eighteen times to fourteen-year-old Bernadette Soubirous at the grotto of Massabielle in Lourdes, France, identifying herself as 'the Immaculate Conception.
O ever Immaculate Virgin,
Mother of mercy, health of the sick,
refuge of sinners, comfort of the afflicted,
you know my wants, my troubles, my sufferings.
Look with mercy on me.
By appearing in the grotto of Lourdes
you were pleased to make it a privileged sanctuary
from which you dispense your favors,
and already many sufferers have obtained
the cure of their infirmities, both spiritual and corporal.
I come, therefore, with unbounded confidence
to implore your maternal intercession.
Obtain, O loving Mother, the grant of my requests.
Through gratitude for your favors,
I will endeavor to imitate your virtues,
that I may one day share your glory. Amen.
