Greetings from our Lady’s Association and thank you for your ongoing support! There is no doubt that our Blessed Mother is putting your prayers and generosity to work in this exciting mission we share.
With as much goodness as our Lady is bringing about, there are still
many men, women, and children who have never heard the story of Saint Catherine Labouré and the Miraculous Medal. Just think of these souls who don’t know to ask for Mary’s loving, maternal intercession.
That’s why I’m inviting you to make an even bigger impact this year by becoming a member of the Twelve Stars of Mary Monthly Giving Club. In doing so, you would join more than 1,445 other members who have already made this commitment of faith.
Participants in our Monthly Giving Club, with a gift of $15 or more, will receive the following membership gifts as an expression of my gratitude:
• A sterling silver Miraculous Medal, blessed at the Shrine, on a stainless steel chain
• The late Father Luke’s book about Mary, “Christ’s Mother and Ours”
• A laminated prayer card with a full color image of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal on the front and the Prayer to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal printed on the back
• A 10% discount on all religious articles offered by the Association, upon request
The Twelve Stars of Mary Monthly Giving Club is a convenient, once-a-month giving plan that allows you to support the Association’s mission in the most cost-effective way. By automating your gift through a monthly checking or credit card payment, you help lower administrative costs and allow your donation to go even further.
If you’re wondering how much of an impact your membership in the Monthly Giving Club could make, along with the generosity of other supporters, consider these statistics from 2018:
• 2,200,000 Miraculous Medals and 2,323 rosaries were put into the hands of those seeking a closer relationship with Jesus.
• 262,000 members from all 50 states and 35 countries were spiritually served through a monthly average of 3,600 phone calls, 2,900 emails, and 4,000 personal letters of acknowledgement.
• 30,000 visits were received on our website each month.
As a member of the Monthly Giving Club, you can choose any of three easy ways to make your monthly donation:
1. An automatic funds transfer from your bank account on the 10th of each month, (the way for your donation to go the furthest).
2. A charge to your credit card on the 10th of each month.
3. Mail us a check.
If you would like additional information, please call us at 1-800-264-MARY (6279).
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our Lady’s work. I hope that you will prayerfully consider joining the Twelve Stars of Mary Monthly Giving Club. Your membership is greatly needed!
May Jesus bless you, and may Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal keep you in her loving care.
Sincerely yours in our Lady
Fr. Kevin McCracken, C.M.
