As God can have it, we were scheduled for a wedding at 10am today as such we both got ready.. Upon entering the car, the song playing was the very song we used to match into our wedding reception venue. On getting to the church, it happened that the wedding mass have already held but the bishop was to say another at 10.30am as such we stayed for the mass. Immediately after homily, the Monsignor asked for coupled who wish to renew their wedding vows to come forward and we did.

    Thank you Blessed Mother.

  49. My 86 year old mother has been suffering with severe back and sciatic nerve pain. We encountered difficulties getting an appointment with a pain management physician.
    While waiting to have the appointment schedule, my mom begin experiencing a change in her mental status. She seemed to not know where she was at and was extremely confused. My dad and I were so sad to see this happening because she has never been this way.
    I had begun the first day of the novena to Our Lady of Lourdes asking her for healing for my mom’s back and that we get a response from a doctor for her treatment. On the second day of the novena was when her mental status changed, that’s when I added to my prayer request for my mom not to loose her memory I prayed to have her back as she use to be. When I went to check on her that next morning my mom was back mentally as if she had never experienced the memory loss.
    She has since had the injection to her back. It has eased the pain a bit. And although she still has a few memory lapses there has not been as much confusion. I give praise and Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ for her continued healing and to our Lady of Lourdes for her prayers.

  50. My husband and I prayed novena together and prayed that we would soon get answers to his health issues and the news would not be as serious as ALS or MS. Before we finished the 9th day, we received good news of it not being either. Although we do not know what exactly is causing symptoms, we are very grateful to have gotten in to see several doctors quicker that expected and moving forward with a plan. God is so Good and we are so blessed to have our Lady of Lourdes to pray, too!!

  51. Been sharing the novena to friends in FB, they were so grateful for having been able to participate, just like spreading the Word of God.
