Lourdes & France

In 1858 the Blessed Virgin appeared eighteen times to Bernadette Soubirous in the grotto of Massabielle and said, “I am the Immaculate Conception.” The spring there has been linked to dozens of miracles the Church has recognized. French itineraries often include Paris, Lisieux and Nevers.
