About this sermon
Discover one of the most extraordinary Marian miracles ever recorded—the true story of Claude Newman (1944) and the Miraculous Medal, also known as the Medal of the Immaculate Conception. This powerful testimony, involving visions of Our Lady, profound repentance, and the conversion of hardened hearts, remains one of the most striking proofs of Mary’s motherly intercession. In this video, we recount the events surrounding Claude Newman, a 19-year-old prisoner from Mississippi, whose life was transformed after he unknowingly placed the Miraculous Medal around his neck. What followed was a series of supernatural encounters with the Blessed Virgin Mary, leading Claude to a deep understanding of confession, Holy Communion, and God’s mercy—despite never having received religious education. His execution—and the miraculous conversion of another condemned prisoner afterward—reveals the incredible power of Mary’s intercession, sacrificial suffering, and the grace of the sacraments. ✨ Themes explored in this video: The meaning of the Immaculate Conception Why the Miraculous Medal brings powerful miracles Claude Newman’s visions of Our Lady The beauty and importance of Confession The Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist The final moments before execution The conversion of a hardened sinner through Claude’s offering Mary's promise to assist souls at the hour of death Whether you are Catholic, exploring the faith, or searching for inspiration, this story will deeply touch your soul and strengthen your devotion to Our Blessed Mother. 🕊️ “Our life, our sweetness, and our hope.” May this powerful testimony lead us closer to Jesus through Mary. 00:00 – Intro 00:09 – What is the Immaculate Conception? 01:00 – Adam, the New Adam, and Mary’s purity 02:00 – Introduction to the Miracle of Claude Newman 02:27 – Claude’s crime and imprisonment 02:46 – The Miraculous Medal incident 03:16 – Claude’s first apparition of Our Lady 04:01 – Beginning catechism lessons 05:00 – Claude explains confession through Mary’s teaching 06:20 – Teaching on the Holy Eucharist 07:00 – Claude’s Baptism 07:16 – Request for a party before execution 08:00 – Holy hour before execution 08:24 – Governor’s reprieve & Claude’s heartbreak 09:03 – Offering his suffering for another prisoner 10:00 – Claude’s joyful death 10:12 – The hardened prisoner’s execution 11:50 – The apparition during the second execution 12:06 – The man’s conversion 12:11 – Closing reflection: Mary’s mercy & devotion For more please visit http://veritascaritas.com/ & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
