During the first millennium,<strong> Christians celebrated the Nativity of Mary, her presentation in the Temple, the Annunciation and her Assumption<\/strong> into glory. Like many Marian feasts, the Nativity of Mary originates in the East, in Jerusalem specifically. From the 5th century, a mass was celebrated there in honour of the Nativity of Mary in the church of Saint Anne, the place where she is assumed to have been born. This festival spread very widely in the West, so much so that it is now the patronal feast of many shrines and churches. Today, the faithful celebrate the fulfilment of the prophecy of Micah, which proclaimed, \u201cthe time when she who is in labour has brought forth (Book of Micah 5:3).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element

never left his native Pyrenees and his life would have been very different if he had not been appointed to Lourdes in December 1854. Four years later, in 1858, one of his young parishioners, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.com\/en\/bernadette-soubirous\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Bernadette Soubirous<\/strong><\/a>, told him that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.com\/en\/the-message-of-lourdes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>the Virgin had appeared to her<\/strong><\/a>. At first sceptical, then convinced, the forty-something abbot would become the young seer\u2019s representative. He defended her against the commissioner, the prosecutor, the prefect. He protected her from journalists and onlookers. He witnessed the first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lourdes-france.com\/en\/miraculous-healings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>miracles<\/strong><\/a>, organised the first pilgrimages, and built the first sanctuary.<br \/>Nothing could have prepared Father Peyramale for this role of great witness.
