Lourdes 2008 Friday 18th of July - Saturday 26th of July

The Archdiocesan Youth Pilgrimage to Lourdes has been running for over 35 years. Every summer more than 450 young people from the diocese make the journey over to the shrine for three things, prayer, service and friendship. Lourdes is an amazing place which can not be summed up in words, you just have to go to experience it! People come back from Lourdes a different person. They have prayed in ways they would never have done before, worked long hours with those who are sick, elderly and weak, and made some fantastic friends.

This year coaches will travel from Liverpool, Knowsley, St Helens, Leigh & Wigan, Penwortham, Thornton, Warrington & Widnes and Leyland. There will also be a group of young adults up the age of 25 traveling by plane and working with the sick pilgrims on more one to one care.
