Devotion to the Miraculous Medal: A plea to be said in every urgent need

The origin of the Miraculous Medal took place on November 27, 1830, in Paris on Rue du Bac. The Virgin SS. she appeared to Sister Caterina Labouré of the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, she was standing, dressed in an aurora-white color, with her feet on a small globe, with outstretched hands whose fingers threw beams of light.

Sister Catherine herself tells us about the apparition episode:
While I was intent on contemplating her, the Blessed Virgin lowered her eyes towards me, and a voice was heard that said to me: "This globe represents the whole world, in particular France and every single person ...". Here I can't say what I felt and what I saw, the beauty and splendor of the rays so bright! ... and the Virgin added: "The rays are the symbol of the graces that I spread on the people who ask me", thus doing understand how sweet it is to pray to the Blessed Virgin and how generous she is with the people who pray to her; and how many graces she grants to the people who seek them and what joy she tries to grant them.

SUPPLIES THE MADONNA OF THE MIRACULOUS MEDAL

To be recited at 17 on 27 November, the feast of the Miraculous Medal, on every 27 of the month and in every urgent need.

O Immaculate Virgin, we know that you are always and everywhere willing to answer the prayers of your exiled children in this valley of tears, but we also know that there are days and hours in which you take pleasure in spreading the treasures of your graces more abundantly. Well, oh Mary, here we are prostrate before you, just on that same day and now blessed, chosen by you for the manifestation of your Medal.
We come to you, filled with immense gratitude and unlimited trust, in this hour 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. We therefore promise you that, according to your desire, the holy Medal will be the sign of your presence with us, it will be our book on which we will learn to know, following your advice, how much you have loved us and what we must do, so that many sacrifices of yours and your divine Son are not useless. Yes, your pierced Heart, represented on the Medal, will always rest on ours and make it palpitate in unison with yours. He will light him with love for Jesus and fortify him to carry his cross behind him every day. This is your hour, O Mary, the hour of your inexhaustible goodness, of your triumphant mercy, the hour you did flow through your medal, that torrent of graces and wonders that flooded the earth. Do, Mother, that this hour, which reminds you of the sweet emotion of your Heart, which prompted you to come to visit us and bring us the remedy for many evils, make this hour also our hour: the hour of our sincere conversion, and hour of full fulfillment of our vows.
You who promised, just at this fortunate hour, that the graces would have been great for those who asked them with confidence: turn your glances benignly to our supplications. We confess that we do not deserve your graces, but to whom will we turn, O Mary, if not to you, who are our Mother, in whose hands God has placed all his graces? So have mercy on us.
We ask you for your Immaculate Conception and for the love that led you to give us your precious Medal. O Comforter of the afflicted, who already touched you on our miseries, look at the evils from which we are oppressed. Let your Medal spread your beneficial rays upon us and all our loved ones: heal our sick, give peace to our families, avoid us from any danger. Bring your Medal comfort to those who suffer, consolation to those who cry, light and strength to all.
But especially allow, O Mary, that in this solemn hour we ask you for the conversion of sinners, especially those who are dearest to us. Remember that they too are your children, that you have suffered, prayed and cried for them. Save them, o Refuge of sinners, so that after having loved you all, invoked and served you on earth, we can come to thank you and praise eternally in Heaven. So be it. Hi Regina
