Since the chief aim of the Association is devotion to our Immaculate
Mother, we urge all members to strive to spread this devotion among
their friends and acquaintances; in other words, to become Promoters
of the Association. They should endeavor to form bands of twelve,
symbolic of the twelve stars on the Miraculous Medal. Any member
maybe a Promoter, and the same Promoter may form many bands of
members. Promoters will receive suitable premiums, and will
participate in three special Novenas of Masses offered each year. One
in the Chapel of the Miraculous Medal, at Perryville, Missouri, the
other in the Mother House of Paris where the Blessed Virgin appeared
to Sister Catherine. The third Novena is offered up in the Church of
St. Andrea in Rome, on the altar where our Blessed Lady appeared to
and converted Alphonse Ratisbonne, a prejudiced Jew.
In all matters connected with our Association address:
The Reverend Director,
St. Mary's Seminary,
Perryville, Mo.
