You can do this by train, and the answer to times and prices will be here: www.sncf-connect.com
However April next year is a long time away, so use a date in the next weeks or so to have an idea of travel options.

Train. It appears there are several trains daily taking about 6 hours, and requiring a single connection. It's waaaay too early to book tickets for April. Look on the SNCF website after the New Year. Note that if you want to arrive on the 11th and depart on the 13th, you need to book your accommodations for 2 nights, not 1. You will wanf to book your hotel accommodations well in advance, as soon as your date are firm.

The train is probably the easiest option since you don’t want to drive. You can take a direct TGV from Marseille to Colmar with one connection, and the journey is quite comfortable. Since you’re only staying one night, I’d book your train tickets early and choose a hotel close to the station or old town to make things easier.

Elowen, Do you mean some other city than Colmar? That is the wrong direction to go from Marseille to Lourdes.
