Participants of Xavier’s annual Lourdes pilgrimage walk in front of the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary during sunset, which is within the Sanctuary of Our Lady in Lourdes, France. On Easter Sunday, people from all over the world gather here to say the rosary, celebrate Mass and light candles, illuminating Easter night. It is known as the ‘Lower Church,’ and is the last out of the three basilicas in Lourdes to be completed.
