Beginning Saturday, June 10, the Association will celebrate its June Novena of Masses to pray for members and their intentions.

The novena spans three important Church feasts: the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ (June 11), the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (June 16), and the Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (June 17). It concludes on Father’s Day, Sunday, June 18.

You are invited to entrust your needs and those of your loved ones to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal during this very special observance. Your petitions will be placed near Mary’s Altar here at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal and remembered in the daily Mass and prayers throughout the nine days. You may also burn a Votive Light as a sign of your spiritual presence.

Through Mary’s intercession, may you draw ever closer to the Sacred Heart of her Son.

We invite you to unite with us in offering up this Miraculous Medal Novena Prayer daily from June 10-18.

Four Ways You Can Participate from home!

From April 17-25, the Association of the Miraculous Medal will celebrate a Members’ Novena of Masses to remember you and your loved ones in prayer.

You are invited to join us in prayer in any or all of the following ways:

(1) Share your special intentions. We will place your petitions near Mary’s Altar here at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, to be remembered in the novena of Masses.

(2) Request a Votive Light to burn as a symbol of your presence with us, reflecting the light of your love and devotion!

On that first Christmas, the Holy Family shared in the miracle of bringing forth a new life. The moment of the birth of Christ on earth brought forth a new spiritual reality for all of humanity — the gift of eternal salvation. Glory to God in the highest! 

Join the Association for its annual Christmas Novena to lift your heart and soul in grateful praise to the Father for the priceless gift of his Son, Jesus! Allow us to present your petitions of adoration, repentance, thanksgiving, and intercession to him through his and Our Blessed Mother, Mary. 

Your intentions will represent your prayerful presence here at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal from December 16-24. Request a Votive Light to burn in honor of the Light of the world, brought forth so lovingly and tenderly by Our Lady, full of grace.

189 years ago, Our Lady appeared to Saint Catherine Labouré and asked her to have a medal made in the likeness of the vision presented to her. Catherine accepted this mission. In the years since Mary’s apparition to Saint Catherine, Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal has touched the lives of hundreds of millions who have worn her medal and trust in her intercession. We continue Mary’s mission of hope by bringing people to Jesus through Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. Allow the Association to pray with you. Send your petitions for remembrance in our annual Miraculous Medal Novena, November 18-26, and request Votive Lights to burn. Read Fr. Kevin’s letter about how Mary is waiting to hear from you. To help you remember to pray and ask for God’s graces, request your 15-month Miraculous Medal Planner for 2020-2021. As you write your own scheduled dates and events, it will remind you that Mary brings Jesus to you every day of your life!

Beginning Tuesday, August 6, at 8:00 a.m., CT, we will honor our Blessed Mother here at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal with a very special Assumption Novena of Masses. On each of these nine days we will celebrate the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in devotion to Mary, asking her to obtain for us God’s infinite graces. Please send me any special prayer intentions you have. We will place them at our Lady’s Altar and remember them in the nine Assumption Novena Masses we celebrate, including the Solemnity Mass on August 15. You may also wish to burn a Votive Light at the Shrine as an expression of your desire to honor Mary and seek her intercession. Read Fr. Kevin’s Assumption message to learn more about the Solemnity of the Assumption of our Blessed Virgin Mary. The Solemnity of the Assumption provides us with a wonderful opportunity to honor Mary, glorious in heaven, always interceding for us!

Send your petitions and burn Votive Lights at our Lady’s National Shrine here in Perryville, Missouri, for the Mother of Divine Grace Novena, beginning June 19 and lasting nine days. Let our Blessed Mother intercede for you with her loving Son. Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal told Saint Catherine Labouré, “Come to the foot of the altar. Graces will be shed on all, great and little, especially upon those who ask for them.”  Our Lady is the Mother of Divine Grace, and she reminds us to ask for God’s grace. I also invite you to say this prayer to our Lady throughout the nine days of this novena.

Christmas is fast approaching, and many of you are feeling overwhelmed by all the preparations of the season. If you are seeing a deeper encounter with Christ this Christmas, I encourage you to offer Jesus your prayers of thanksgiving. A perfect way to do this is to send me your Christmas petitions to be included in the Shrine’s Christmas Novena, December 16-24. Your intentions will be placed at our Lady’s Shrine for remembrance as we prepare for the coming of our Lord. You might also want to burn a Votive Light in thanksgiving for the blessings of the year. May our newborn Savior bless you this Christmas and may his Mother Mary watch over you and your loved ones.

When our Blessed Mother appeared to young Catherine Labouré in 1830, she foretold the evil and sorrow of the revolutions of 1830 and 1832 in France. The situation back then seemed hopeless, just as it does for so many today. But no situation is hopeless when Mary, the Mother of Jesus, steps in! She gave us the Miraculous Medal which has brought us hope in times of despair. The Association here in Perryville, Missouri, continues Mary’s mission of hope by bringing people to Jesus through Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. Allow the Association to pray with you. Send your petitions for remembrance in our annual Miraculous Medal Novena, November 18-26, and request Votive Lights to burn.  Read Fr. Kevin’s letter about how Mary is waiting to hear from you. To help you remember to pray and ask for God’s graces, request your 15-month Miraculous Medal Planner for 2019-2020. As you write your own scheduled dates and events, it will remind you that Mary brings Jesus to you every day of your life!
