Our Lourdes Pilgrimage Director, Alex Manko, would like to thank those who have donated items from the Pilgrimage Wishlist which was launched recently. The Wishlist includes essential equipment and supplies to support those who need the most care during the pilgrimage with items such as: shower chairs, pressure-relieving mattresses, thermometers, blood pressure monitors and bed rails.
Highlighting the incredible generosity of people across our faith family, Alex said:
"The kindness and thoughtfulness of others is such a powerful part of our pilgrimage — our Wishlist donors have offered something tangible to help ease another person’s journey. "Some have made these contributions in memory of former pilgrims who are no longer with us, with this act of remembrance adding a deeply moving layer to their gift. We will remember all those who have donated items in our prayers at the Grotto in Lourdes this summer, as well as throughout our time on pilgrimage. Your generosity continues to travel with us, carried in our hearts and intentions."
