Marianist World Day of Prayer 2011


This year, the Marianist communities in Bangalore went on pilgrim to Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine in Nagamangalam to celebrate the Marianist World Day of Prayer. 

Miraculous Water from Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine in Nagamangalam, Tamil Nadu, India


Fr. Joy Oonnnukkallel, OSB, Fr. Henri Bonal, MEP, Vicar of St. Mary’s Church, Royakottai, and Mr. Periyanayakam, a traditional Christian devotee from Kelamangalam, gathered together at this farm to discuss the chapel they had started.  The chapel was to be dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes.  While they were in discussion, Mr. Prabhakaran, a farm worker, was digging in the soil and at a depth of a foot and a half, he struck water which created a very large pond, present today.  A 660 foot bore well had been dug nearby but no water had been found.  The spring water cured a worker of diabetes. A number of miracles followed.
