Singapore Indoor Stadium filled to capacity for the 4th Lourdes Experience

09/12/2019 


On Saturday, members of the #OrderofMalta in Singapore hosted its fourth Lourdes Experience. The celebration was held at Singapore Indoor Stadium that was filled to capacity.

Hundreds of litres of water from Lourdes, France, was imported and packaged for giveaway to pilgrims at the stadium.

There was a healing Mass presided by Archbishop William Goh, and concelebrated by many priests from the diocese and testimonies giving thanks for graces received through the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes. A candlelight, multilingual rosary procession with the statue of Our Lady of Lourdes was also be conducted on the stadium floor.

Following the example of the activities at Lourdes, the Blessed Sacrament was carried in a monstrance and brought among the sick, as well as around the stadium to bless all who have come to honour Our Lady at this great Marian event.
