Thanks for a great article. I did my consecration to Jesus through Mary on the feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes, and I am still not well educated on this particular apparition because the one that has had a huge impact on my life is Our Lady of Guadalupe. She changed my life, and so did her immaculate heart.
I wear lapis blue because it’s the closest I can get to Mary blue, on Marian feast days, but for Guadalupe I often wear the colors she appeared in and would like to do that for Lourdes too next year. In fact I have head scarves in that blue that only come out on her feast days so people know that if my headcovering is done with a particular scarf, it’s a Marian feast day.
All that to say that I love articles like this. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I enjoy wearing my light blue veil on Marian feasts as well; it's such a wonderful way in which we can outwardly express our devotion to Our Lady. May God bless you!
Yes! Chantal and I are planning on continuing this as a series, examining various apparitions and miraculous images, particularly the more unusual ones.

I love OL of Lourdes and have visited the grotto. Her dress at the various apparitions is so interesting.
