We attended Mass today in the outside Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine, Euclid Ohio. Arriving early we walked the Rosary path lined with tablets depicting the Rosary. The statues in this area are enlightening and one cannot help but stop to admire and ponder the mysteries. The grotto has a fountain where you can drink from the water and ask for blessings. There is a small area where testimonials of healing are shown. It is very touching and moving to see so many crutches and braces sent as confirmation of a healing.
After church I continued to view the wonderful grounds and went inside the chapel. Inside are wonderful stained glass panels. A small gift shop there has about every Saint and Prayer card you could want and at very reasonable prices. This is a very peaceful and prayerful trip to make and the area is full of things to do. The locals are very friendly as well. The community of Euclid, Ohio is very blessed to have this wonderful place in their hometown.
