The Lourdes pastoral theme

Basilica of Lourdes Outstanding destination

Over the next three years, the Sanctuary of Lourdes is inviting us on a spiritual pilgrimage, a journey to the heart of the Virgin Mary’s story. We’ll go step by step, guided by the Gospel of Luke.

Our journey, our hope

2026 : the Annunciation
“Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you” (Lk. 1:28)
This is the year of the welcome, of listening and of the ‘yes’ that changed everything.

2027 : the Visitation
“In those days Mary set out and went with haste…” (Lk. 1 :39)
This is the year of service, of joyful charity and of reaching out to others.

2028 : the Magnificat
“His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation.” (Lk. 1:50)
This is the year of praise, of gratitude and of singing in acknowledgement of God’s wonders.

“The pilgrimage to Lourdes was a special privilege. I learnt, prayed, rested, experienced and got to know folk in my parish better. What impressed me most about Tangney Tours was that it was all so well organised that I had nothing to worry about.”
