CULTURE TUESDAY - Jack Traynor - Miracle of Lourdes
Radio Maria UK
Archbishop Malcolm McMahon has declared the case of John (Jack) Traynor a miracle. Jack was a pilgrim on the archdiocese's first official pilgrimage to Lourdes in 1923 and was cured dramatically of epilepsy, paralysis of the right arm and paraplegia during the pilgrimage. The case has been believed to be miraculous from people across the archdiocese and beyond, but, despite an attempt in 1993, there has never been an official ecclesiastical declaration until today. It is the 71st official miracle to have happened in Lourdes and the first person from England to be recognised. The Liverpool Lourdes Pilgrimage association share Jack's Story as well as how listeners can join them this year to Lourdes.
