The Redevelopment Project of the Grotto and Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine committee are holding a fundraising campaign, to prepare the grounds and make the mountain site accessible for everyone and "an oasis in the heart of the city where one can find God at any time and throughout every season." (Father R. Perron)

Shown above, selling tickets on the major fund-raising project, are Suzanne Venne, on the left and Rejeanne Lapalme. The ladies spent a few hours selling tickets and talking to people about the redevelopment project on the hill in Sudbury.

In 2007 we will be celebrating 100 years of the Grotto and Our Lady of Lourdes Shrine. If you would like to be part of the redevelopment you can purchase your tickets from Father R. Perron at 673-3961 or Marguerite at 675-5712 or Marco at 674-4480.
