An Act of Consecration to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal

The Miraculous Medal is a sacramental. According to the Catechism () “A sacramental is a sacred sign, resembling a sacrament and instituted, as a rule, by the Church.“ “The Miraculous Medal was originally called the Medal of the Immaculate Conception, but, because of the numerous accounts of miracles by those who wore it, people began to call it the Miraculous Medal, and the name stuck. The Medal is a visual reminder of our salvation through Jesus Christ.“ The Miraculous Medal is one of the most popular sacramentals of the Catholic Church. Obtain one and have it blessed. It is an exceptional addition to the prayer life. Use of Articles of Devotion (Obiectorum pietatis usus) The faithful, who devoutly use an article of devotion (crucifix or cross, rosary. scapular or medal) properly blessed by any priest, obtain a partial indulgence.
