Our Lady of Lourdes National Shrine 100th Anniversary Mass
Our Lady of Lourdes National Shrine 100th Anniversary Mass 21281 Chardon Rd. Euclid May 31, 2026
Dedicated in 1926, a replica of the original shrine in Lourdes, France, Our Lady of Lourdes National Shrine in Euclid, Ohio, is carved from imported Italian marble. Within the surrounding grotto, water flows over a piece of stone from the original shrine, where Mary appeared to St. Bernadette

People from all over the world come here to touch the stone and also find serenity in the Stations of the Cross and Rosary Hill. From May through October, masses are held outdoors surrounding the shine and grotto. On Sunday May 31 a 100th Anniversary Mass was held celebrated by Bishop Edward Malesic.
It was fitting that the Mass was on the Feast of the Holy Trinity because the Sisters of the Most Holy Trinity protect, maintain and glorify the shrine as well as provide religious services and other activities in the diocese and the community.
This video starts with the Processional into the Shrine with Knights of Columbus, Sisters of the Most Holy Trinity and others leading the way for Bishop Edward Malesic. The Bishop gave some opening remarks and then we hear his sermon which includes some history of the Lourdes Shrine and the Trinity Sisters. Sister gave some closing thanks and remarks and then Bishop Malesic blessed the large crowd and marched out for the Recessional. Watch.

All 4 Mysteries (Joyful, Sorrowful, Glorious and Luminous) are included and there is an extra Decade for your special intentions.
It could be free for Churches and Groups! Ask us.
We hope that this DVD inspires you to pray the Rosary more frequently. You can choose to view/pray a single Decade, a complete Mystery or all 4 Mysteries. The DVD includes a listing of all the Mysteries.
The Rosary is a great gift given to us by Our Blessed Mother.
