What is a Miraculous Medal

The Médaille Miraculeuse, also known as the Médaille de Notre Dame des Grâces, is a Catholic devotional object that was conceived following the Marian apparitions to Saint Catherine Labouré in 1830 in Paris. This medal is renowned for the graces and protections attributed to those who wear it with faith.

Origins and history of the Miraculous Medal

The origin of the Miraculous Medal dates back to 1830. The Virgin Mary appeared to Saint Catherine Labouré, a young nun, and presented her with the medal's design. The medal is intended to bring special graces through Mary's intercession if worn with trust and faith.

Significance of the symbols on the Miraculous Medal

The Miraculous Medal is engraved with symbols rich in meaning. On the front, the image of the Virgin stands on a globe, crushing a serpent, symbolising evil. The rays of light emanating from her hands symbolise the graces she bestows. The inscription "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you" frames the medal, reinforcing its sacred character.

How to use and wear the Miraculous Medal

Wearing a Miraculous Medal is an act of faith and devotion. It can be worn around the neck, attached to a rosary, or kept in a place of prayer. It is advisable to have it blessed by a priest to enrich its spiritual significance.
