We hope to see you at the Association’s annual tradition on Sunday, May 1, at 1:00 p.m., CT, here in Perryville, Missouri. Please join us in person or in spirit as we honor Our Blessed Mother. 

Making an offering is another way you can play an important part in the spiritual works of the Association of the Miraculous Medal. Gifts help spread devotion to Our Blessed Mother, who has promised to pour out graces and favors on all who appeal to her with confidence. Offerings also enable AMM to send free, blessed Miraculous Medals to anyone who asks.

Thank you for your faithfulness and generosity as we honor Mary throughout the month of May.

Our Lady’s Association invites you and your loved ones to view three sacred relics during the first two weekends in April at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal.

This portion of a larger, permanent donation to the Shrine includes an authenticated piece of the True Cross; fragment of the table at which Jesus celebrated the Last Supper; and particles from the sites of Gethsemane, Via Dolorosa (the Way of the Cross) and Calvary.

According to the second edition of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, prayerful reflection in the presence of sacred relics has long been counted among the spiritual practices of faith-filled Christians:

“Besides sacramental liturgy and sacramentals, catechesis must take into account the forms of piety and popular devotions among the faithful. The religious sense of the Christian people has always found expression in various forms of piety surrounding the Church's sacramental life, such as the veneration of relics, visits to sanctuaries, pilgrimages, processions, the stations of the cross, religious dances, the rosary, medals, etc.”
(Paragraph 1674)

The Association of the Miraculous Medal pledges to serve as a faithful and diligent caretaker of the sacred relics which have been entrusted to us.  May they serve to inspire all people to draw closer to Our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. Learn more by calling 1-800-264-6279 weekdays from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., CT.  Send us your intentions to be remembered in the Mass at the Shrine on April 10 at 11:00 a.m., CT.  

Read Fr. Kevin’s letter about this tentatively scheduled “live and in person” Procession scheduled for Sunday, May 2, at the National Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal in Perryville, Missouri.

Please pray for its success and join us in spirit, if not in person. Making an offering is another way you can play an important part in the work of the Association of the Miraculous Medal. Your spring gift will help bring Mary to the world and — through her — bring the world to Jesus! Your support also assists Vincentian priests and brothers in their ministries of prayer and service. Thank you for your generous membership in our AMM family.
