“The foundational event of Lourdes had two witnesses which remain today the way to its truth: the grotto and Bernadette. Today, we are able to access the grotto via the Internet thanks to TV Lourdes. When travelling, we marvel at its many replicas around the world. In fact, to say grotto is to say Lourdes; to say Lourdes is to say Mary. To say Mary is to say Jesus. To say Jesus is to say God. Bernadette is the second witness. All that we see in Lourdes, and in its representations throughout the world, is found in the heart of Bernadette, buried like seed, held in reserve, as the hidden spring, perhaps for other times, for other people, for other places. If the grotto and Bernadette are indeed the two doors to the reality of Lourdes, of the two, the grotto is undoubtedly more visible than Bernadette who, today as yesterday, remains hidden. But is that not holiness?”<\/em> explains Father R\u00e9gis-Marie de La Teyssonni\u00e8re. During this conference he will be presenting and giving a commentary on the large number of photographs he took during his journey, which attest to the worldwide reach of the message of Lourdes.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
