November 27, 2023 is the Feast of the Miraculous Medal

 


A special thank you to all who have joined us on the journey of the 9 Day novena of the Miraculous Medal, which concluded yesterday, November 26. 

This summer Amelia Grace, age 9, a member of the Children's Rosary, went on pilgrimage from Portugal to France and visited the Chapel of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. She writes, "Besides the Shrine in Fátima, Portugal, the Chapelle of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal in Paris is the best shrine I've visited in my life. I [attended] Mass and [prayed] two Rosaries."

Pictures from Amelia's pilgrimage are included above. She also sent us a summary of the important message which was given to St. Catherine Laboure.

"Have a medal struck after this model,” our Blessed Mother told Sister Catherine Laboure, who is now a Saint, on Nov. 27, 1830, when she appeared to her in the Daughters of Charity convent in Paris:

“All who wear it will receive great graces; they should wear it around the neck. Graces will abound for persons who wear it with confidence.”

During Amelia's trip, she got lots of Miraculous medals for her friends and delivered many Children's Rosary books to the Rector of the Shrine. We are grateful to Amelia for her help in spreading the Children's Rosary. She not only brought French Children's Rosary books with her on her pilgrimage and shared them, but she also has continued to share Children's Rosary materials along the Camino in Portugal. 

Thank you Amelia!!!
