Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes

Banner of Our Lady of  Lourdes
Today we celebrate the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes who is the patron of the Diocese of Lancaster. The banner hangs at the back of the Cathedral alongside the Bishop's motto and a banner for our other Diocesan patron.  

 Who is the other diocesan patron? You'll see his banner at the back of the Cathedral.

For those who have not been to Lourdes you may find the link to the Lourdes 24 hour TV link a fascinating connection with the many pilgrims visiting Lourdes.  There is live coverage of the services and archives of the rosary for the past week. Click link
