The Medal's Divine Origins
The Miraculous Medal originated in Paris, France, in the year 1830, after St. Catherine Labouré experienced an apparition of the Virgin Mary. "God wishes to charge you with a mission," Our Lady said to Catherine.
In a later apparition, Catherine reported that Mary came framed in an oval and standing upon a globe. Rays of light shone from her hands. Around the edge of the oval, these words appeared: O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
Our Lady asked Catherine to have the image made into medallions and distributed, saying "All who wear them will receive great graces." To learn more about this fascinating story, read our article 20 Things I Didn't Know About The Miraculous Medal.
