About this church

The Basilica Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal sits at 500 E Chelten Avenue in the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia and is a Roman Catholic shrine run by the Central Association of the Miraculous Medal, a ministry of the Vincentians. It is best known for the Perpetual Novena and Mass held every Monday at 9 a.m., 12:05 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., with a traditional novena and Benediction at 2 p.m. The 12:05 p.m. service is livestreamed on YouTube. Mass is offered on Sunday at 9 a.m. and Tuesday through Saturday at 12:05 p.m., with confession available before Mass.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament takes place on Mondays in the Lower Shrine Crypt Chapel. On the first Tuesday of each month, a Spanish-language rosary, novena and Mass is held in the morning and evening, followed by fellowship in the Lower Shrine. The site lists visiting hours when the shrine is open daily for prayer and reflection, along with gardens, a rosary walk, a gift shop and the Madonna Art Museum. Visitors can also light a candle or send prayer intentions through the website. Programs called Beyond Sunday include retreats, youth programs and spiritual learning for all ages, and the calendar lists seasonal events such as Lenten devotions and feast day celebrations.
