Welcome to
Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church
The Season of Lent
As a spiritual journey, Lent (Beginning on Ash Wednesday) gives us an opportunity to journey to three different directions, namely; inward, outward and upward. The journey inward is one into the self, as we look and examine our selfishness and stubbornness of hearts that prevents us to live like true children of God.
The journey outwards should be a journey of the self towards others. The efforts that we exert should not only be towards personal gain but should also have a fruit in helping others.
Lastly, it is an upwards journey, a journey of self towards God. In moving towards God, Lent must be an opportunity to be reconciled with God.
As we receive the ashes on Ash Wednesday let us commit ourselves to make this Lenten season truly a time not only a focusing on what we do but also on who we are and who we can become.
Please keep safe!
Devotedly yours in Jesus Christ and Mary Immaculate

Our Patroness
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Novena for Healing
Our Lady Of Lourdes
God of infinite mercy, we celebrate the feast of Mary, Our Lady of Lourdes, the sinless Mother of God.
May her prayers help us to rise above our human weakness.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son
Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever. Amen.
