The first contribution in 2016 to the Chaplains’ Educational Essay series, “The Lourdes Pilgrimage – A Pathway to Spirituality” was written by Father Owen Moran, a Deputy Chaplain and Pastor of Saint Rose of Lima Church in East Hanover, NJ. Father Owen talks about the activities of the Pilgrimage and draws out for our inspection and recognition, the spiritual elements in those activities. Father Moran provides us, in a very timely way, an opportunity to focus more closely on what we do in Lourdes to better understand how the Pilgrimage, indeed, can be a special and unique pathway to spirituality.
