Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE The Miraculous Medal Its Origin, History, Circulation, Results By M, Aladel, C.M. The principal author of this book, Father Aladel, was a member of the Congregation of the Mission founded by Saint Vincent de Paul. More importantly, he was the spiritual director and confessor of Saint Catherine Laboure. The Miraculous Medal was designed by the Mother of God and communicated by her to Sister Catherine with the instruction that this devotion be spread throughout the Church. The inscription: O Mary conceived without sin pray for us who have recourse to thee, anticipated the definition of the Immaculate Conception by nearly a quarter of a century. This book relates not only the heavenly visitations given to this humble saint, as well as her adventures and crosses endured for Our Lady s cause, but also it gives the ensuing history of the medal itself with many accounts of miracles which accompanied its pious reception. From the Publisher Composed by an Archbishop, this praiseworthy tribute to our Savior's holy Mother was actually written the very same year that Pope Pius IX defined the dogma of Our Lady's Immaculate Conception. Beginning where all great works on Our Lady should, with her exalted office and dignity, the author educates the reader that he or she might see the congruity, even the necessity, of Mary's divine prerogative in the eternal plan of redemption, and also see the Immaculata as the fulfillment of the highest possible degree of excellence God could establish in a creature, perfecting through her the crowning glory in the gradation of all being outside of God. Archbishop Ullathorne is not original, but masterful, in his explanation of Mary's royal relationship with the angels as well as men, for she it was who gave the Incarnate God the flesh and blood by means of which all the elect achieved their salvation. A true gift of charity for a Protestant friend in search of truth! This softcover edition is in excellent, almost new, condition. The cover is clean with minimal, if any, wear.
