I did put my YES in the chat box this afternoon for 2 of those precious blankets 🦋 and just ordered them on your website
It’s wonderful to create holy heirlooms that we can bless people with and one day hand them down to our families and friends.
Years ago I had a few things made with beautiful prayers on them and the recipients cherished them and eventually handed them down to loved ones
It will be part of your MDM Legacy my dear friend and I think it is a fabulous idea!!!

I would like to express my joy and delight in receiving and opening the beautiful package that you gave me in the parking lot at St. Mary’s. When Dennis first handed it over to me I was touched by the beauty of the colours and fabric used to package the order. The gorgeous blankets were folded in such a way to highlight through the package the beautiful profile of Our Lady of the Cape. When I first glanced at that profile it took my breath away.

It was to my delight that during my morning Rosary and Divine mercy chaplet group...one of our members displayed the new Mother Mary blanket.
Our Lady of the Cape, 8 Inch
8" hand painted resin Pilgrim Statue for parishes and families.
Each statue comes with the special gift of a laminated Miraculous Medal Cape Card featuring a cloth that has touched the relics entrusted to the MDM, the Miraculous Statue of Our Lady of the Cape and the tombs of Fr. Luc Desilets and Fr. Paul Vachon, blessed by "then" rector of Canada's National Marian Shrine, Bishop Pierre-Olivier Tremblay, OMI, and a rose fragment blessed on the Confraternity Altar.
Fr. Paul Vachon was the diocesan priest who had the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary established at Cap-de-la-Madeleine in 1694 by the Master General of the Dominican Order, Antonin Cloche, OP.
Fr. Luc Desilets found the pig chewing on a rosary in 1867 and reestablished enrollment in the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary leading to the miracle of the ice bridge, the prodigy of the eyes, the 1904 canonical crowning and a million pilgrims visiting the Cape in 1954!
