Jennifer Warnes & Leonard Cohen, "St. Bernadette"

St. Bernadette

St. Bernadette of Lourdes was very VERY fortunate. When our lady appeared to her in the grotto the first time, Bernadette was full to the brim with faith. No-one would believe her because they could not see the things she saw, but Bernadette would not change it. The special virtue of the well-known St. Bernadette is faith. I am going to imatate her by praying the rosary and believing that Our Blessed Lady will save the world from Communism.

Dear Jenny,

It is quite clear now that your imitation of St. Bernadette, praying the rosary, and your belief in Our Blessed Lady, did save the world from Communism.

A special Papal Commission has been convened to study your case, and the rumor in the Vatican is that your grade will be elevated to A+.

I hope that you will keep on praying for the safety of the world. To tell the truth, I depend on your efforts.

Much love,
Leonard
