the_rev Posted February 27, 2004 Author Share Posted February 27, 2004 I've been wearing mine to school everyday. In addition I wear my crucifx, miraculous medal, and padre pio medal. This teacher threaten to suspend me for wearing the crucifix. It so happens he is the social studies teacher, so I asked him if he wasn't the one that taught us about Freedoms guarnetted by the constitution. He shut up then!

Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted March 28, 2004 Share Posted March 28, 2004 I am a huge fan of the Brown Scapular, I have been wearing it for about a year...also for those who want to wear it but are not sure...if you want to receive full graces you have to be enrolled in the fraternity (pretty much saying that you will wear it devoutly). and you are allowed to wear it without being enrolled, but you just don't receive full graces. It is kind of like joining a team with Mary as the coach. Pax et Agape per Maria. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 Well enrollment is like saying that you know Mary will protect you, and you are supposed to eaither pray the rosary daily, or some other form of Mary devotion to show your love for you Mother. But to go about being enrolled...Usually any priest who wears a scapular can enroll you, or (sometimes in a specific cases) any other member who has been enrolled can enroll you. This is how it goes. Priest - Show us, 0 Lord, Thy mercy. Respondent - And grant us Thy salvation. P - Lord, hear my prayer. R - And let my cry come unto Thee. P - The Lord be with you. R - And with your spirit. P - Lord Jesus Christ, Savior of the human race, sancfify by Thy power these scapulars, which for love of Thee and for love of Our Lady of Mount Cannel, Thy servants will wear devoutly, so that through the intercession of the same Virgin Mary, Mother of God, and protect against the evil spirit, they persevere until death in Thy grace. Thou who liveth and reigneth world without end. Amen. The Priest does the Aspersion and Invests Person(s) While Saying: Receive this blessed Scapular and ask the Most Holy Virgin that by Her merits, it may be worn with no stain of sin, protect you from all harm and bring you to everlasting life. Amen. After the Investiture the Priest Continues With the Prayers: I, by the power vested in me, admit you to participate in aff the spiritual benefits obtained through the mercy of Jesus Christ by the Religious Order of Mount Carmel. In the name of the Father+and of the Son+and of the Holy Ghost+. Amen. May God Almighty, the Creator of Heaven and earth, bless you, He who has deigned to join you to the confraternity of the Blessed Virgin of Mount Carmel; we beseech Her to crush the head of the ancient serpent so that you may enter into possession of your etemal heritage through Christ our Lord. R - Amen. Hope this helps. May Our Lady of Mt. Carmel protect us and call her children to a Holy Life. Pax et Agape per Maria, Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 (edited) The medal is legit...but it is not what Mary gave St. Simon Stock. So I wear the wool Brown Scapular because it is what Our Mother told us to wear. That's just me. [quote]I have been looking for one of these....where did you get yours? [/quote] You can order them off of the internet. Just do a search for them. Cross of the Crusaders Brown Scapular.
