La Lettre - HNDL Official Newsletter - March 2024
Friday, June 28, 2024
Dear friends, brothers and sisters in hospitality,
I am pleased to send you the second Newsletter of the Hospitalité Notre Dame de Lourdes for the 2024 season.
In it you will find news about our Sanctuary and our Hospitality. But also a draft programme for the trip to Rome on the occasion of the Jubilee Year in 2025.
Many of our newsetters do not reach their recipients for many reasons. This is why I invite you to share it with all your friends as soon as you receive it. It is better to receive several than none at all.
With all my friendship and the assurance of my devotion.
Daniel Pezet
President of the Hospitalité Notre-Dame de Lourdes

16th July 1858: “I could only see the Virgin; I have never seen her so beautiful!”
On 16th July, the Sanctuary celebrates the 18th and final Apparition of the Virgin Mary to Bernadette. They had begun 5 months earlier, on 11th February. On that day, access to Massabielle was forbidden by the local authorities. Bernadette went to the other bank of the Gave and said, “It seemed to me that I was standing in front of the grotto, at the same distance as the other times, I could only see the Virgin, I've never seen her so beautiful!”
On this very special day, the Sanctuary invites you to celebrate the 18th Apparition on site, or online on the "Praying with Lourdes" app, in union of prayer with millions of pilgrims.

Processions at the Sanctuary
During the pilgrimage season, the Sanctuary invites you to respond to the call of Our Lady of Lourdes: “Go and tell the priests that people should come here in procession” (2nd March 1858).
Come and follow in the footsteps of the thousands of pilgrims present every day, during the Eucharistic procession at 5pm and the Marian procession at 9pm.

A look back at the blessing of the new Youth Village square
As the renovation work on the Youth Village continues, on 14th June, the Sanctuary's rector blessed the village's new square, the chapel's new bell tower and, at the same time, the City Stadium. In the centre of the village, this new square now bears the names of Fathers André and Jean-Luc Cabes, in memory of their life of service to the youth ministry of the Sanctuary.

A look back at the blessing of the new Youth Village square
In keeping with tradition, the bikers' pilgrimage took to the streets of the Marian city before making their way to the Grotto on Sunday 16 June.
Father Michel Daubanes, rector of the Sanctuary, presided over mass in the church of Saint Bernadette and lit the candle at the Grotto. As usual, he then blessed the riders, hundreds of whom turned up at the Saint Michael Gate.

Spanish pilgrims gather in large numbers at the feet of Our Lady of Lourdes
Since the beginning of the summer, Spanish hospitalities have responded in large numbers to the Virgin Mary's invitation to come to Lourdes. Many dioceses, including Segorbe-Castellón, Albacete, Murcia and Vic Solsona, have been giving thanks to Mary with the same devotion that characterises pilgrimages on the Iberian peninsula.
