Be Part of the Miraculous Medal Novena of Masses — November 18-26
I invite you to join fellow Pilgrims of Hope who will ask Mary’s help during the Jubilee Year Novena of Masses honoring Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. Our novena begins Tuesday, November 18, here at the National Shrine in Perryville.
Send your prayer intentions now. We will place them near Mary’s Altar inside the Shrine Church, where they will be remembered in the daily Novena Masses and on November 27, the feast of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal.
Consider also requesting one or more Votive Lights to burn for your intentions. Each light gives witness to your faith and is a sign of your spiritual presence with us.
Since the first Miraculous Medals were shared in 1832, countless people have reported receiving special blessings through Mary’s intercession.
The following are among the many AMM members we’ve heard from recently are …
| Leonor S.: Last August, I placed a call to AMM about my daughter-in-law, who was having surgery to remove a huge tumor, possibly cancerous. I sent a petition for Votive Lights, Masses and prayers. Results showed no cancer. Truly a miracle. The beautiful healing and grief cards, along with the medals, have touched the lives of countless people locally and out of state. Again, thank you for the prayers and support. Doug K: Six years ago, I was diagnosed with a very rare cancer, usually considered fatal. Here in Tucson, a city of a million people, I am considered to be the first known case. I have worn the Miraculous Medal and prayed for Mary’s intercession every day since my original diagnosis. Recently, tests detected no trace of the disease in my body. My oncologist was jumping for joy. There is no medical explanation. However, I know there are forces at work beyond medicine. What happened is nothing less than a miracle. Of course, I continue to pray for Mary’s help. A New York member: I had been giving out Miraculous Medals to elderly nursing home residents. Visiting there again, I saw many of the people wearing them. One lady asked for more so she could give the medals to her children. I felt Our Blessed Mother was with us. She is there for the sick, the lonely, and the elderly. She is always a Mother to her children.Leonor S.: Last August, I placed a call to AMM about my daughter-in-law, who was having surgery to remove a huge tumor, possibly cancerous.

Whether the need is great or small, all of us can use Mary’s help. She awaits us to turn to her with confidence and trust. Our petitions also invoke her power over Satan as she holds her foot on the head of the serpent on the face of the Miraculous Medal.
Take a moment today to place your own or a loved one’s spiritual, material, or physical needs into Our Lady’s hands. You may also use the occasion to lift up prayers of gratitude to God for blessings already received.
Along with my fellow Vincentian priests and brothers, as well as AMM members, I am keeping you in prayer.
We look forward to receiving your Miraculous Medal Novena intentions. May God bless your every effort to serve him, and may he draw you ever closer to himself.
Sincerely yours in Mary,
P.S. Request free, blessed Miraculous Medals to further AMM’s ministry. Each is affixed to a beautiful card explaining the medal’s origin. Share them with family, friends, parishioners, and anyone you meet who is seeking to draw closer to Our Lord and Our Lady.\
