Picture by Simon Barber (tel 07739 472 922) The Pilgims Progress: Worshippers to Lourdes from the Ivory Coast wearing dresses patterned with an image of the Virgin. Pilgrims come from all over the world to visit the shrine where St Bernadette saw her vision and many from poorer countries are sponsored by their neighbours to bring back holy water to their communties.
