Santa Bernadette Soubirous e il Miracolo di Lourdes – Dipinto di Dino Carbetta
“Saint Bernadette Soubirous and the Miracle at Lourdes – Painting by Dino Carbetta” …
Our Lady of Lourdes is a title of the Blessed Virgin Mary, invoked by Roman Catholics in honor of the Marian Apparition that took place in Lourdes, France. Saint Bernadette Soubirous was a fourteen-year-old peasant girl who witnessed Our Lady’s apparition. There was a total of seventeen apparitions over the year 1858. Our Lady told St. Bernadette that we were to pray for the Conversion of Sinners, and she stated, “I am the Immaculate Conception.” Saint Bernadette was asked to dig in the ground and a “spring” would erupt. She did as she was told, and to this day the water runs. Nearly six million faithful make the pilgrimage annually, and hundreds of miracles have been reported through these visits. The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes is an area of ground surrounding the Catholic shrine (Grotto) to Our Lady of Lourdes in the town of Lourdes, France. The Sanctuary is a destination for pilgrimage; sick pilgrims are reputed to be miraculously healed by Lourdes water. This ground is owned and administered by the Roman Catholic Church. Grottos intended as replicas of the one at Our Lady of Lourdes, and other grottos in honor of Our Lady of Lourdes, are often described as "Lourdes grottos." Lourdes has become a place of pilgrimage, healing, and even more of faith. Church authorities have recognized over sixty miraculous cures, although there have probably been many more. To people of faith, this is not surprising. It is a continuation of Jesus’ healing miracles—now performed at the intercession of his mother. Some would say that the greater miracles are hidden. Many who visit Lourdes return home with renewed faith and a readiness to serve God in their needy brothers and sisters. There still may be people who doubt the apparitions of Lourdes. “For those who believe in God, no explanation is necessary. For those who do not believe, no explanation is possible.”
