Prayer is an essential tool for healing and is an excellent source of comfort,
courage and strength for those who are suffering. During times of illness,
disease or a life challenge, nothing is more important than to offer prayer
and to join with others in assurance of these prayers.
In addition to prayer, the Saints protect us against harm, help strengthen our
faith and offer spiritual guidance and healing. They are our models of prayer
and their intercession helps present powerful prayers of healing to God on
our behalf.
Our new Patron Saints of Healing line offers hope and comfort to those who
seek healing through the intercession of the Saints. Each holy card and medal
set includes a high-quality prayer card that contains novena prayers specific
to the affliction, a short biography of the patron saint and an oxidized silver
patron saint medal.

On February 11, 1858, the Blessed Virgin
Mary appeared to Bernadette Soubirous,
a young, poor, and sick girl, in the grotto of
Massabielle, close to Lourdes in France.
Our Lady appeared 18 times to Bernadette
that same year. During the ninth vision,
Our Lady told Bernadette to drink of a
mysterious, unseen spring within the grotto.
Bernadette scratched at the ground
and a spring immediately bubbled up
and soon gushed forth. In another apparition,
the Blessed Mother revealed herself as the
Immaculate Conception and asked that a
chapel be built on the site of the vision.
The Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes
in southern France is the most visited
pilgrimage site in the world. Many sick people
have bathed themselves in the healing waters
of the spring in hopes of obtaining help
from the generous Mother of God.
Her feast day is February 11th.
Our Lady of Lourdes, Pray for Us.
