During the apparition, Our Lady showed Catherine a medal, called the Miraculous Medal, which represented her image with the words "O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you“. The Virgin Mary asked Catherine to spread the medal as a sign of protection and blessing for all those who carried it with faith.

In this article we want to leave you the Supplication to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, to be recited on the 27th of every month, precisely at 17pm to help you in all circumstances.

Supplication to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal

O Immaculate Virgin, we know that always and everywhere you are willing to answer prayers of your children exiles in this valley of tears, but we also know that there are days in which you are pleased to spread the treasures of your graces more abundantly. Well, oh Mother, here we are prostrate before you, on that same blessed day, chosen by you for the manifestation of your Medal.

We come to you, filled with dI immense gratitude and unlimited trust, on this day so dear to you, to thank you for the great gift you have given us by giving us your image, so that it could be a proof of affection and a pledge of protection for us. 

This is the hour, O Mary, of yours inexhaustible goodness, of your triumphant mercy, the hour in which you made that torrent of graces and wonders that flooded the earth flow through your Medal. Do, O Mother, that this hour, that remembers the sweet emotion of your Heart, which pushed you to bring us the remedy for so many evils, may it also be our hour: the hour of our sincere conversion, and the hour of the full fulfillment of our wishes.

You, who promised that great graces would be for those who asked for them with confidence, turn your gaze kindly on us. We confess that we do not deserve your thanks. But to whom will we resort, O Mary, if not to you, that you are our Mother, in whose hands God has placed all his graces? Have, therefore, have mercy on us. We ask you for your Immaculate Conception and for the love that pushed you to give us your precious Medal. Amen.
