This morning at mass, Father Phil blessed Marian medals and prayer cards for all of the students of IHM. The medals can be kept in a wallet, pocket, or other safe place. It is said that the wearer of the medal will receive great graces. Click on the link below to learn more about the medal in the Catholic tradition.
Meaning of the Miraculous Medal
We will also be reciting the prayer to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, which is on the prayer cards, at the end of the day during announcements.
Virgin Mother of God, Mary Immaculate, we unite ourselves to you under your title of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. May this medal be for each one of us a sure sign of your motherly affection for us and a constant reminder of our filial duties towards you. While wearing it, may we be blessed by your loving protection and preserved in the grace of your Son. Most powerful Virgin, Mother of our Savior, keep us close to you every moment of our lives so that like you we may live and act according to the teaching and example of your Son. Obtain for us, your children, the grace of a happy death so that in union with you we may enjoy the happiness of heaven forever. Amen.
