Thanks for your prayers. It was such a beautiful pilgrimage. We were able to go to Mass at the Lourdes chapel, which was offered by our pastor. (I'll post pictures later on today) I had no idea he was going to be there. What a small world! I also ran into a few people I had not seen in years and at the bookstore this sweet lady came up to me and asked me if I was Ruth from the Real Learning forum. She introduced herself as Tammy. It was great to meet her and 3 of her sons and her husband.

I offered up the Rosary and Mass for the intentions of those here on the board. It was a grace filled day. Afterwards the kids and I watched "Song of Bernadette." I just wish I could've gotten some Lourdes water. I'm not sure they have any there.
