“I lived in perfect love, and my children lived in perfect love for a week, and I as a caregiver was served,” Adkins said. “To know that God can and does provide — that is another huge faith thing for me because of it.”
Our Lady of Lourdes is one of the titles by which we honor the Blessed Virgin Mary, and each year this feast is celebrated on February 11. The date marks the anniversary of the first appearance of the Blessed Mother to a humble, fourteen-year old peasant girl named Bernadette Soubirous (1844-1879) near Lourdes, France, in 1858.
