Utrecht – Saint Bernadette is coming to Utrecht today. Not in its entirety, but only a small bone, a so-called reliquary. She can be admired in Utrecht’s Catherine Cathedral until Saturday. “The greatest gift from Lourdes,” Pastor Hans Boogers calls it. “Something really special is happening there. Saint Bernadette is such a source of strength for everyone.” But why is the canonized saint so special to many Catholics?
