Our Lady of Lourdes Grotto rededicated and blessed

While St. Mary of the Angels was a place of prayer and reflection for Thomas Merton, so were some places at the campus of St. Bonaventure University. The famous Grotto is the spot where he made the decision to enter a Trappist monastery. Read this story about the restoration of this treasured spiritual space. A video of the remarks from the university president, Dr. Andrew Roth, and the VP of facilities further explains the Grotto's history and how it came to be renovated. The public is invited to pray at the grotto any time. https://youtu.be/-l652k17OCQ
