It certainly changed my heart and the way I pray. Thank you Abbe Francois Trochu! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mary Bernarde, I love you *by R***C on May 8, 2013* Forgive me, Bernadette, but you captivated my heart a very long time ago, and I said even then, if I were ever to believe, you would be the one to make me believe. And so, here I am, finally, becoming a member of the Catholic church. It's your own fault, you didn't HAVE to be so lovely :)One of the quotes I read recently, in our church Missal, was Bernadette complaining about being shown off like the prize cow at the fair, with all the people trying to get a glimpse of "the visionary," and how she did her best to avoid the attention. And people doing silly things like dropping hats in front of her in the hope she would pick it up, hoping to get a 3rd class relic, to which she retorted for the person to pick it up himself. Another quote from the same article she says her Mother Superior told her her pride would die 15 minutes after she did. And then, from this book, one of the first quotes I glanced up, Bernadette says she is being sold on the street corner for .10cents (referring to holy cards that were being sold at the time) - and that was all she was worth.The more I learn, the more I'm drawn to this blessed saint. I can see no way for this book to disappoint me, except perhaps in leaving me wanting more :)Forgive me, Bernadette. I will do my best to think of you as a mother (you look alot like my mother.) Thank you for bringing me to God. May I one day be blessed to see Mary, the Immaculate Conception, upon the day of my consummation.Be generous to us poor hungry souls :)The book is lovely, and has many black & white photos I had not seen before. I could only wish for a hard-cover version, as paperbacks are too disposable, and Bernadette deserves so much better. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Truly Interesting Story for Believers and Non-Believers Alike *by T***E on January 7, 2015* Well written and thorough. This is the story of Bernadette and her life before the apparitions, her accounts and visions, and life afterwards. This also gives varied testimony from many people who either knew her, saw her, spoke with her or interrogated her. She remained the same: pure at heart--no matter who grilled her or fussed over her. This was not one-sided. There were many non-believers and people aching to tear her down or expose her as a fraud. This was a well written book about the unexplainable--the ecstasies--the visions--the power of beings that are greater and higher than humans. It does not ramble on about the laws of religion but rather, the hope and goodness of God and the love of the blessed Virgin Mary. Bernadette warned that Lourdes is 'not a place of magic'--it is not a 'cure all'--but it is a place to bring your faith, hope and prayers. The photos are black-and-white, good and plenty, with a variety of years and people. I was very happy with this book--I visited Lourdes, the churches, the sacred spring and blessed grotto immediately after finishing the book. The book aided in what Lourdes once was, long before modern day took over and souvenir shops lined up. I would recommend it--even to non-believers out there--it's an interesting read and Bernadette's life story is remarkable. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/11830856-st-bernadette-soubirous-1844-1879-paperback-january-1-1957](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/11830856-st-bernadette-soubirous-1844-1879-paperback-january-1-1957) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
