Many Catholic shrines are associated with alleged apparitions of the virgin Mary. When a location becomes known for having been visited by the Holy Mother, it becomes a place of pilgrimage and donations to the local church quickly allow for the construction of impressive shrines and for the betterment of the church and its community.During the nineteenth century, it was said that Mary appeared at Lourdes not once but several times. Pope Pius IX authorised the local bishop to permit the veneration of the Virgin Mary in Lourdes in 1862. Our Lady of Lourdes also said that pilgrims should drink and wash in water from a local spring. The truth of the apparitions of Lourdes is not an article of faith for Catholics.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/catholicism/visions-of-the-virgin-mary
I believe she was with the show almost the entire time it aired.
There is no requirement for Catholics to ever go to Lourdes. It is a choice left to the individual. Some go once in a lifetime, some several times and others never go.
Supposedly, the Virgin Mary appeared to a girl named Bernadette in Lourdes. It is now considered a holy place and a pilgrimage site for Christians. Many Christians believe if you go there it will heal you from illnesses.
According to the biblical account, an angel appeared to Mary once, when the angel Gabriel announced to her that she would conceive and give birth to Jesus.
Christians don't have to go to Lourdes any time. Being a christian does not require believers to go on pilgrimages to any place for any reason because Christianity is not about about how many times you go somewhere or how many times you pray each day- that is religion. Christianity is about a persons relationship to God not religion.
Many actors and actresses take on commercials at times. Mary Tyler Moore decided that it was the right time and product to support with the role.
