Our Lady of Miraculous Medal Shrine: A Scenic Place of Worship in Bogo City

It is evident in Philippine history that this country has been strongly influenced by the Catholic practices of the Spaniards and many historical landmarks and buildings throughout the country show proof of that. Cebu is no exception and it is even home to the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño, the center of the Sinulog-Santo Niño Festival, or more famously known as the Sinulog Festival.

In the far reaches of Cebu, specifically in Bogo City, lies Our Lady of Miraculous Medal Shrine. The Miraculous Medal is a medal that, when blessed, is believed to have the special protection of the Mother of God. It was first called the “Medal of the Immaculate Concepcion” but is now simply known as “The Miraculous Medal” due to the numerous cures and protection given by the Blessed Virgin Mary to those who wear it.
