| The Assumption of Mary at the Rosary Chapel at Lourdes |
The Church honors Mary today as we celebrate her Assumption into heaven. Sharing three more photos from my recent trip to Lourdes, one can see the altar dedicated to the 4th Glorious mystery with an intricate mosaic that is over 100 years old. Another photo shows the encounter of Mary with Elizabeth as sculpted on the base of the large crucifix at the other end of the Lourdes esplanade. And the miracles attributed to Mary keep coming, not only those 70 medically and scientifically recorded since 1858, but the many other unknown and unrecorded miracles that take place within families, in communities and homes, like the many reconciliations and renewed friendships that are healed through prayer.
