Fr. Alphonse Ratisbonne - Seeing the Blessed Virgin Mary made him give up wealth to become a priest!

Not all amazing stories have led to canonization. Maybe it will come in the future! This is the story of conversion and the power of the Miraculous Medal, the Memorare!

Love the conversion story.
Thank you.

“Saint” Ratisbonne pray for me! You will be declared a saint one day.

The decrees of Urban VIII teach that you must wait for the decision of the Church before calling anyone a saint.

Viva Cristo Rey! Pray for my vocation.

[@heroiclives1278]

I'd be happy to! What vocation(s) are you currently discerning?

An amazing conversion story. The Miraculous Medal is such a powerful evangelising tool and in the Legion of Mary we use it to great effect. You might consider doing a video on Servant of God Frank Duff the founder of the Legion of Mary which is 100 years since September 2021.
Excellent video.
