St. Bernadette said, "One must have faith and pray, the water will have no virtue without faith." St. Bernadette drank the water and washed her face with it. Our Blessed Mother has granted favors in conjunction with its use. It is something external meant to encourage and help our prayers and good works.
Most people apply Lourdes water to the diseased or suffering part of the body, drink it, or bless others with it. No harmful effect ever resulted from drinking or washing in the water. In fact, many people sick in body, mind or spirit have experienced profound healing.
The Lourdes Marian Center will be distributing water at the 2008 Midwest Catholic Family Conference.
The Lourdes Marian Center is Authorized by the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes to distribute water from the miraculous spring.
