For the first time, the relics of St. Bernadette Soubirous have come from Lourdes, France, to tour the United States. Her relics will be available for veneration at more than 30 churches and shrines from East Coast to West Coast, and in between.
On this U.S. pilgrimage, St. Bernadette’s relics, which include part of her rib, are contained in a large reliquary crafted by master craftsmen of religious artistry at Maison Granda workshop in Spain in 2019.
St. Bernadette's Relics will be visiting the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist on
July 12-14, 2022.
