Sharing the Message of Lourdes requires a dedicated staff and a variety of resources. We are grateful for every donation received to help us continue our holy work.

We are the first Lourdes Hospitality of the Americas and the first Hospitality outside Europe. We bring the seriously ill and disabled to Lourdes, France and serve the Sanctuary as volunteers. We evangelize through the Gospel Message of Lourdes sharing the grace of pilgrimage through Virtual Pilgrimage experiences to those unlikely or unable to make the physical journey to Europe.  

We are volunteers, laity, clergy and religious, who lovingly serve the Immaculate Conception and her pilgrims both in the Sanctuary at France and back at home through living and sharing the Gospel Message of Lourdes. We are members of a Catholic Association united in prayer, evangelization and service within a charism of family centered in love reaching the sick and suffering, the poor and unloved.

We are privileged to offer 1 oz. bottles of undiluted, unfiltered Lourdes Water drawn from the Spring of the Lourdes Grotto in France available to share within the United States and during our Lourdes Virtual Pilgrimage Experiences around the world.

It is our blessing to share the liquid grace of Lourdes at no cost. However, we do accept donations to help us pay for bottles, packaging and postage. While your donation is not required, it is truly appreciated and will allow us to continue this ministry. We thank you for making a donation after you place your request.

History of Guadalupe House

Built mostly in the nineteenth century, according to old town maps, some of the building dates to the early 1700s or before. This historic home is located across the doorstep from the Presbyter to tell the pastor the name of the beautiful lady appearing to her in the Grotto. When Bernadette exclaimed to Père Peyramale “I am the Immaculate Conception,” the Pastor realized it was the Mother of God who was requesting Bernadette to ask for a chapel and for people to come in procession on pilgrimage.

Today, pilgrims from all over the world retrace the footsteps of St. Bernadette who surely passed by both the front and back of Guadalupe House to “go tell the priests” and ultimately to reveal the name of the most beautiful lady in the Grotto.

Before acquiring the property, the North American volunteers in service named it Guadalupe House, honoring the Patroness of the Americas, Our Lady of Guadalupe, befitting the first American Lourdes Hospitality. Purchased in 2004 through a generous private interest-free loan, a decade later and mortgage-free, development of dreamed renovation plans began. As originally hoped, the two car-length garage named after the saint to whom Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared, Juan Diego, was redesigned as a private residence for priest-chaplains.

The Renovation and Restoration Plan includes both structures, the exterior courtyard and entry. The house is need of major repairs and modern updates honoring the historic charm and legal preservation requirements.

Help us bring the sick to Lourdes! It was Andrea’s Wish that anyone, especially the seriously ill be granted the opportunity to make holy pilgrimage to Lourdes. Support Andrea’s Wish TODAY!

Created in loving memory of Andrea Bartolomeo, Andrea’s Wish is a sponsorship fund supporting supportive care pilgrims who journey to Lourdes.

Andrea was a pilgrim who answered the calling to Lourdes and humbly showed us the true road to holiness with her powerful example to “see Christ in everyone.” She gave witness to the possibilities for the critically ill, terminally ill, and profoundly disabled to make the pilgrimage to Lourdes with prudent planning and expert supportive care.

It was Andrea’s Wish that anyone, especially the seriously ill or disabled without family, caregivers or financial assistance, be granted the opportunity to make the holy pilgrimage to Lourdes.

Read more of Andrea’s story in Chapter 8 of Everyday Miracles of Lourdes by Marlene Watkins.

The Mary Lu and Jim Flynn Fund (Flynn Fund for short) makes the journey to Lourdes possible for volunteers seeking to provide assistance on the Holy Pilgrimage to Lourdes, France but who need financial assistance to do so.  The Flynn Fund now provides partial or full sponsorship to volunteers seeking to serve others on pilgrimage.

We have exciting news to share about this new sponsorship fund for 2026. Stay Tuned!
