Miraculous Medal
The Miraculous Medal is a religious medal that was designed in 1832 based on a vision experienced by Saint Catherine Labouré, a French nun. The medal features an image of the Virgin Mary standing on a globe, with rays of light symbolizing the graces she offers to those who ask for them. The reverse side displays the letter "M" intertwined with a cross and twelve stars, representing the twelve apostles.
The medal is often worn by Catholics as a sign of faith and devotion. Many believe that wearing the Miraculous Medal can bring protection and blessings. It is commonly distributed by churches and is associated with numerous reported miracles and answered prayers.
