Lourdes is famous as a place of healing, and many pilgrims like to bathe in the waters of the spring which Bernadette uncovered in 1858. One morning during the pilgrimage, all members of the CA will be given the opportunity, should they wish, to go to the ‘Piscines’ (baths) located in the Domaine. The bathing ritual is short and simple, and reminds us of our baptism and the call to follow Christ.
