2. Twenty years for visiting the sick, aiding them spiritually or
corporally, or (if the visit be impossible) for reciting for the
intention of the sick five Our Fathers, five Hail Marys and five
Glorias.
3. Twenty years may be gained on the feasts of Our Lord, and on the
feasts of the Saints of the Augustinian, Dominican, Carmelite,
Trinitarian and Servite Orders.
4. Seven years and seven quarantines on the minor feasts of the
Blessed Virgin Mary. And when one goes to confession and Communion,
when one accompanies the Viaticum, when one recites seven Our
Fathers, seven Hail Marys and seven Glorias for the sick who received
holy Communion. The same indulgences is gained on all the feasts to
which a plenary indulgence is attached by a visit to a church
containing an altar dedicated to our blessed Mother. Confession and
Communion are not prescribed for this indulgence. The same, for the
recitation of the "Hail, Holy Queen," at vespers, when one prays for
the needs of the Church. The same, daily from Septuagesima to Palm
Sunday on condition that one receive Holy Communion and recite seven
Our Fathers, seven Hail Marys and seven Glorias for the needs of the
Church. The same on the feasts of the Invention and Exaltation of the
Holy Cross, if an alms be given. The same on three Fridays of each
month by receiving Holy Communion. The same on the nine days of
novena before Christmas. The same on every Monday, if one visit the
Blessed Sacrament.
5. Five years and five quarantines daily, if a visit be made to any
church and five Our Fathers, five Hail Marys and five Glorias be
said. An indulgence of three hundred days daily during the Octave of
Pentecost, two hundred days each time that one is present at a
sermon, sixty days for each pious work, fifty days for piously
invoking the holy names of Jesus and Mary, or when one recites an Our
Father, a Hail Mary and a Gloria in any church for the living and the
dead.
6. Mass said at any altar for a deceased person who had been rightly
enrolled in and wore the Miraculous Medal enjoys the spiritual
advantage of a Mass said at a privileged altar.

THE ASSOCIATION ESTABLISHED IN THE WESTERN PROVINCE OF THE
VINCENTIANS
As may be seen from the Statutes, the object of the Association is
the personal sanctification of its members and the sanctification of
the neighbor by means of the medal. In order to cooperate in this
holy and noble work, the Vincentians, or the Priests of the
Congregation of the Mission, with the approval of the Most Reverend
Archbishop of St. Louis, have established this Association at their
Central House in the Western Province.
