Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time | Bulletin of February 15, 2026 Message from Msgr. Schwanger

My Dear Family of Our Lady of Lourdes,

What wonderful days of celebration these have been! I want tot hank everyone who worked so hard during the Festival to helpus honor Our Lady and celebrate the gift that is our parish family. Seeing us all together serving each other and enjoying each other’s company, being family, is very moving. In particular, I want to congratulate Fr. Fredy. He has taken us to a whole new level!

We get to see the hard work and good spirit of those who ares erving on the Food Court but there is also a great multitude that we don’t see. Our set up and break down teams and our parking team do much of their work unseen and are wonderfully generous men and women who make an enormous difference.Congratulations and thanks to them as well!

The Healing Mass and Candle light Rosary Procession highlight our celebration of the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes. We can feel Our Lord’s Spirit present and active, healing His people in body andin spirit. And this weekend we have the Geste de l’Eau. We, like Bernadette, are able to wash and drink of the water of Lourdes. It,too, is an intimate and powerful encounter with the healing powerof God’s love.

Again, this year, we are blessed to welcome the Rector of the Sanctuary of Lourdes, Fr. Michel Daubanes, to Miami. He will be with us Sunday, March 8th. He will be the main celebrant at the1:30 pm Mass and we will have our Eucharistic Procession for the month of March immediately following that Mass. Let us all turn out to welcome him with the same joyful love we receive when wearrive in Lourdes!

These are truly wonderful days.
God is good!

Msgr. Schwanger
Pastor
