Breathtaking Views and Special Blessings: Our Unforgettable Day in Lourdes
June 14, 2026
Morning at the Peaks: The Magnificent Pic du JerWith a free morning on our itinerary, our group took full advantage of the beautiful weather and headed straight for the magnificent Pic du Jer. The adventure began with a thrilling funicular cable car ride, scaling the steep mountainside to the summit. Once at the top, we were treated to spectacular, panoramic views of the Pyrenees. Even as we head into the warmer months, patches of pristine white snow still dusted the distant peaks, making the scenery absolutely breathtaking. It was truly an amazing experience that photos simply cannot do justice. A Touching Afternoon: The Anointing of the Sick After a quick lunch to refuel, we transitioned from the heights of the mountains to the spiritual heart of Lourdes for the Anointing of the Sick. This afternoon service was an incredibly moving and special celebration for our school community. We were immensely proud to have two of our own students actively involved in leading the prayers for the anointing. Their participation brought a deeply personal and reverent energy to the service, leaving a lasting impression on everyone in attendance.
“It was a day of perfect balance—experiencing the awe of creation in the morning, and the grace of community and faith in the afternoon.”
