7 Cases for Lourdes Pilgrimage

 ***

1. Covid-19 Pandemic is an eschatological parable, but The Immaculate Conception will be our refuge during this new times and era that are unfolding. 

2. This new era will be birthed by a  supreme submission of the great Motherhood (Alma Mater) to the Divine prerogative. It is a motherhood which comes in three:

1.)Our Biological mother (which has happened) 
2.) The land of our birth (which is happening). 
3.) The source of our evolution, the Church (which will happen). 
Lourdes encapsulates the 3 motherhoods. 

3. The pilgrimage of 2016 Divine Mercy Jubilee Year was our escape against the vicissitudes of the great ‘shutdown’ which is ongoing. On a similar note, this pilgrimage will be a preparation for refuge against any future ordeal which may be looming.

4. ‘In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph’. This is a period of great Hope, irrespective of what may be happening in the world today . And this hope is being championed by a woman called Mary.  

5. Fatima and Lourdes are 2 sides of the same coin. Fatima is about ‘what will you do for me’. Lourdes is about ‘what can I do for you’.  The reason why many (Including our diocese (Oke Maria) choose this period for our pilgrimage) is to find the easiest  (next to do-nothing) succor in Our Lady. Similar to what mercy is with justice.

6. I have always been wary of the 13th to 15th years after, in the Akinolas. I’ve seen that the clue to breaking the next jinx is with the Immaculate heart. It’s nearing time and the time to act is now! 

7. I have been to Lourdes 2ce and the graces and protection I’ve received have left me aghast. There is heaven on earth and my desire is that everyone experience this heaven, even on this side of the bridge. 


Happy Feast day
