June, 1858
A barrier had been put up to prevent people from accessing the grotto.
Bernadette:
“I don't agree with the Superintendant of the Police. But we mustn't be influenced by decisions made by men. Almighty God allows such things. We must be patient.”

The blessed Virgin spoke to Bernadette in her local dialect….
“Que soy era Immaculada Councepciou”
(I am the Immaculate Conception)

Bernadette Soubirous was born in Lourdes on 7th January 1844. Two days later, on her parents first wedding anniversary, she was baptised in the Parish Church.
The original baptismal font still stands in the replacement parish church of Lourdes built in 1905.

Today’s gospel focusses on the Bread of Life.
Bernadette said:
“Jesus, give me I pray …the bread of humility, the bread of obedience, the bread of charity, the bread of strength, the bread of patience, the bread to see you in all things”.
