If we choose to do so, we can show others this light and we can do it without saying a word. This can be done by the strict discipline of our lives. This is what Christ was speaking of when he told us: “Let your light so shine before all that people may see your good works and praise your Father in Heaven”.

The achievements are many and the sacrifices they made were often unbelievable. Perhaps, one of the most famous was the ministry of Mother Marianne of Molakai, a member of the Sisters of St. Francis. She gave herself in service to the lepers of Hawaii, serving for 29 years until her death. Through the efforts of communities of Catholic Sisters, one or more hospitals were developed in every major city of the U.S. The first group to arrive was the French Ursulines who came to New Orleans in 1727. They opened the first Catholic hospital in New Orleans in 1728. Countless communities of Catholic Sisters followed them. Few Sisters are famous. Most Sisters lived and died obscurely, secure in their belief in Our Lord Jesus Christ, giving themselves freely and willingly to the care of the sick. The Franciscan Sisters of Calais, the subject of this publication, came to the U.S. in 1911. The publication is a brief history of their ministry in Louisiana.

Polistena “Gentlemen, whether you like it or not, the feeling for religion has in the last six years regained a power which no one could have foreseen.”[1] A member of France’s Chamber of Deputies made this surprising declaration in 1837, noting the dramatic religious revival that had taken place in France in recent years. One particular religious event, a Mariophanic occurrence, may have contributed to this phenomenon. It also led to a new iconography for the Virgin Mary (fig. 1). This is the subject of my article, in which I attempt to show how a new, potent image of the Virgin became popular because it emerged at a propitious moment, politically, and because new technologies helped to widely propagate it.

    Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes ‒ Marian High School, February 11

    Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes – Marian High School, February 11, 2019 Most Reverend Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades “It was 161 years ago today, on February 11, 1858, that the Blessed Virgin Mary first appeared to the 14-year old Bernadette Soubirous at the grotto of Massabielle near the village of Lourdes in France. It was the first of 18 apparitions. At this first apparition, Bernadette first saw a light, then she saw a young lady who she said was “beautiful, more beautiful than any other.” She did not know it was the Virgin Mary. Bernadette said that the lady smiled at her and spoke to her with much tenderness and love. She described the woman to others as ‘the beautiful lady.’ She was beautiful in every way, not just physically. It is hardly surprising that Mary should be beautiful, given that – during the last apparition on March 25th, 1858, she revealed her name to Bernadette. She said: “I am the Immaculate Conception.” Is this not the greatest beauty of Mary of Nazareth, the Mother of Jesus? She was without sin from the first moment of her existence. She was preserved by God from every stain of original sin. We call her Mary most holy. Her holiness was perfect. That’s why she’s the greatest of all the saints, the Queen of All Saints. That’s the patron title I gave to Bishop Dwenger High School some years ago, when I gave to your high school Our Lady of Lourdes as patroness. The young Bernadette saw the beauty of Mary.

Deep in our soul are profound and pleasant memories of the pilgrimage to Lourdes which We had the privilege of making when We went to preside, in the name of Our Predecessor, Pius XI, over the Eucharistic and Marian celebrations marking the close of the Jubilee of the Redemption. 2. We are particularly pleased, therefore, to learn that, on the initiative of the Bishop of Tarbes and Lourdes, this Marian city is preparing an appropriate celebration for the centenary of the apparitions of the Immaculate Virgin at the grotto of Massabielle, and that an international committee has been set up for this purpose under the presidency of His Eminence Eugene Cardinal Tisserant, Dean of the Sacred College of Cardinals. 3. We wish to join with you, Beloved Sons and Venerable Brothers, in thanking God for the great favor granted your country, and for the many graces He has bestowed on multitudes of pilgrims during the past century. 4. We wish to invite all Our children to renew in this jubilee year their confident and generous devotion to her who, in the words of Saint Pius X, deigned to establish at Lourdes "the seat of her immense kindness."[1] 5. Every Christian land is a Marian land; there is not a nation redeemed in the blood of Christ which does not glory in proclaiming Mary its Mother and Patroness.
