Encounter The Saints Series
“Going out to collect firewood one morning, Bernadette Soubirous was amazed to see a beautiful lady holding a rosary. Who was she? The lady said nothing that day. But on a later visit she revealed her name: ‘I am the Immaculate Conception.’ She asked Bernadette to dig in the ground until water came up. That spring became the center of the most famous shrine in the world: Lourdes. Find out how Bernadette, a poor, uneducated little girl, became one of the best-loved saints of the Church.”
The book tells a story about her life, has a prayer, and has a glossary.
