The Miraculous Medal is the most popular religious medal in the world, and for good reason: it comes from Heaven. Here at Catholic Shop, you can choose from thousands of Miraculous Medals, including 14K Gold, Sterling Silver and more.
Why everyone should wear one: The Miraculous Medal originated in the year 1830 after St. Catherine Labouré experienced an apparition of the Virgin Mary at a convent in Paris, France. "God wishes to charge you with a mission," Our Lady said to Catherine.
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." Learn more about the Divine origin of the Miraculous Medal.
