About Saint Bernadette's
Catholic Church
Welcome to the website for Saint Bernadette Catholic Church
located in Mount Hawthorn, Western Australia
Saint Bernadette Soubirous, also known as Saint Bernadette of Lourdes, is best known for experiencing Marian apparitions of a "young lady" who asked for a chapel to be built at the nearby cave-grotto at Massabielle. These apparitions are said to have occurred between 11 February and 16 July 1858, and the woman who appeared to her identified herself as the "Immaculate Conception".
Saint Bernadette's visions were simple and focused on the need for prayer and penance. She explained that the vision had told her "to drink of the water of the spring, to wash in it and to eat the herb that grew there," as an act of penance. To everyone's surprise, the next day the grotto was no longer muddy but clear water flowed.
After investigation, Church authorities confirmed the authenticity of the apparitions in 1862. In the 150 years since Soubirous dug up the spring, at least 69 cures have been verified by the Lourdes Medical Bureau as "inexplicable" – after what the Church claims are "extremely rigorous scientific and medical examinations" that failed to find any other explanation.
