"Go and tell the priests"

The Order of Malta's annual pilgrimage to Lourdes will soon be underway, eagerly awaited after two years of absence. The theme of this year's pilgrimage is "Go and tell the priests...", taken from the words that the Virgin Mary spoke to Saint Bernadette on March 2nd, 1858: "Go and tell the priests that a chapel should be built here and that they should come in procession." 

Find the Fund at the Hotel Solitude

The Fund will have a stand at the entrance to the Hotel Solitude from the afternoon of Friday 29th April to the morning of Monday 2nd May.


Please come and speak to us about your works of the Order of Malta, and how the Fund might be able to help, and about ways to become more involved in supporting the Order of Malta's global works through the Fund.
