The Mission will arrive in Miami, for the first time on the American continent, and from there it will go on a tour in the United States, giving visitors from all over the country a chance to venerate the relics here, in the American soil.

A plenary indulgence may be obtained during the visit providing the usual criteria are met.

Saint Bernadette has inspired over 3 million pilgrims to Lourdes - France, every year.

This year she is coming to a parish near you!

Embrace the Faith

Saints are above all witnesses of Faith.

Kissing or touching a reliquary is not magic, but a gesture of attachment to that Faith. It is an act of belonging to the people of God. We put ourselves in the footsteps of that Saint, a seeker of God who has given an example that inspires us to follow his or her spiritual journey.

Relics are "remains" of someone who truly existed. We are not simply in front of a symbol or an image, but in front of a reminder that from the day of our baptism, we Christians have become a temple of the Holy Spirit, inhabited by God.

The veneration of a relic is not a question of attaching undue importance to the physical material, but to what it represents. The worship of saints must be subordinate to their prayer and their example, so that they intercede with God on our behalf.

Moreover, the reliquary is in no way a monstrance or a tabernacle and it is not placed on, but next to or near the altar, so that it becomes unambiguous that the saint we venerate is a relay of our prayer to the Father.
