..."Five years of work inspired by the spiritual journey of a life lived in faith has given us an evangelic Way of the Cross, which faithfully echoes the message of the Virgin to little Bernadette, like a living bridge joining the land of Lourdes to heaven: already a little piece of heaven on this earth. From one station to the next, the sculptures of Maria de Faykod's Way of Cross help us clear our minds of so many obsessive images which crowd them, and open our penitent hearts to the redeeming grace of the Lord. As we pass the beads of the Rosary of the Virgin Mary through our fingers with Bernadette, we walk with faith in the footsteps of Jesus, lovingly experiencing the Joyful, Luminous and Sorrowful Mysteries of our difficult lives, in the hope of the Glorious Mysteries where they will be assumed and transfigured".

Preface by Cardinal Paul Poupard, Emeritus President of the Pontifical Council for Culture.

Foreword by Father Raymond Zambelli, Rector of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes. Also available in French, Italian, Dutch.
