WATER OF LOURDES – THE BLESSINGS IF VIRGIN MARY

The French city of Lourdes came into prominence in 1858 when news spread about the miraculous power of the water gushing out of a grotto in this city. It all started when a 14 year girl narrated to her mother that a beautiful lady had appeared in a cave near the city and told her that they should bathe and drink water from the spring that flowed under the cave. Seventeen more sightings were reported that year and soon people from far and near started to reach the visit the city to take a dip in the sacred spring. It was believed that taking a bath or drinking the water could cure the people from their disease and sufferings. It is believed that the miracles are a blessing of the Our Lady of Lourdes who faithful believe is Virgin Mary. Since then for over 150 years people have been travelling to this holy city between March and October with devotion and hope that their sufferings would be cured.  The water has been tested scientifically and no harmful substances have been found.

The story of Gabriel Gargam is well known in the history of Lourdes as he was healed both spiritually and physically. By the age of fifteen Gabriel had lost faith in the Church. While travelling in a train he was thrown away from the train after it met with an accident and his condition become deplorable with him being paralyzed waist down, gangrene setting in his legs and he was unable to consume food. Due to requests from his aunt and constant pleading from his mother he agreed to visit Lourdes. When he was lowered in the water his situation worsened and people thought he had died. On their way back to the hotel they stepped aside to let the process of the Blessed Sacrament pass. The priest in the Sacred Host passed Benediction over the mourning group. It was then that a miracle helped and there was a movement and Gargam sat erect leaving the crowd gathered rubbing their eyes in disbelief. He soon stood up and started to walk and declared himself cured. He fell down on his knees to thank the Shrine of Blessed Mother. He was even able to eat his full meal the same night. A panel of 60 doctors examined him and declared him fully cured. Overwhelmed by the gratitude he dedicated his entire life serving the invalid at Lourdes.

Sadly a large number of suffering people are not able to take advantage of the miraculous water. They are either in such a physical condition that they are unable to undertake a journey to Lourdes or unable to do so because of their financial condition. Over the decades friends and relatives of them have been carrying the water for them. Several individuals have made arrangements so that these people may procure the water of Lourdes sitting at their home.
