We trace Catherine Labouré’s hidden path from Burgundy to Rue du Bac, where a midnight summons became a global devotion. Through history, symbols, miracles, and mission, we show why a small medal still carries big grace.

• early life and formation of Catherine Labouré
• 1830 France as context for the apparitions
• July 18 encounter and personal commissioning
• November 27 vision and the medal design
• December confirmation of mission and promises
• theology of the medal and Church approval
• spread of devotion amid cholera and upheaval
• documented miracles and conversions
• the Vincentian charism and service to the poor
• practical invitation to deepen Marian devotion

Visit our website today and let Journeys of Faith guide you to a deeper devotion. Don’t just read about faith, live it.
