The Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes on Allan's Island,
Lamaline, was originally placed there in 1953 by Mabel
Haley as an act of Thanksgiving to God for her recovery
from TB. Over the years it had fallen into disrepair. A Parish
Committee raised funds for its restoration as part of
preparations for the Year of Faith. This restoration included
new statues, a new sign and improved grounds. Archbishop
Currie will preside at a Mass at the restored Grotto on
September 8th at 5PM.
