    My daughter broke her ankle the day before we got enrolled in brown scapular. She was in severe pain and was admitted to hospital. I was desperate when I knew she needed surgery immediately. I had been waiting for months to get enrolled. I cried and knelt while praying rosary and asking our Lady to help. My daughter's pain stopped right after I finished praying. She was discharged from hospital the next day. So all of us were able to attend the mass on the feast of Our Lady of Mt Carmel. We were enrolled on the day🎉

    I wear mine everyday. I was wearing my scapular when I was miraculously saved from death not just once but two times from a heroin overdose. I am sober today and living a much better life.

      I gave a green scapular to a woman I know on heroin she's gone to confession and is starting to attend Mass, pray that she gets clean and dedicates her life to God. Well done all glory to God.

    Nice Explanation Father I wore the Scapular since I was 13 and now I am 15 and in my entire life I never felt this Happy and Confident before wearing the Scapular.I am a Gen Z for my opinion It is not true that Gen Zs are losing Faith cause I am a Gen Z I am born in 2006 and I Pray the most to be reunited with God in Heaven Someday When I grow old and Die.

    I just ordered my scapular, and also for my parents, as I was trying to order a branch came crashing onto my balcony which temporarily distracted me because I needed to investigate. Then as I continued a bird crashed into my window which also caused delay and distraction. The devil tried to stop me from ordering them, but it didn't prevail, and there is nothing that will prevent me from receiving them. Thank you Blessed Mary my Mother ❤️✝️

    Thank you for this video and explanation ... As a +50 year convert from quasi protestantism ... the church at times still seems very strange ... the beliefs and practices overwhelming ... and clear instruction very hard to get. One can study of course ... but where to take the questions? Parish priests are super busy ... on line experts become well known and then they are hard to reach as well. One can get into a study group ... CAREFULLY ... but their opinions may not be valid or distorted for emotional reasons. .... etc. I love the Surrender Novena Prayers ... Jesus I trust in You, take care of everything. That I learn what You want me to learn ... and not worry about anything else.

I wear the brown scapular 18 months now, it has changed my life drastically, it is comforting to know the immense love of Mary, and the great grace, in which Our Divine Mother has brought me so close to her so Jesus, such a deep warm feeling .is not the word, ...a "knowledge" ..to love Mary and Jesus and to know both give in return so much love..❤. I pray that many will also know this incredible love...beyond the graces which accompany wearing the scapular ...Salve Regina, Mater Misericordiae ....it is this word saying it all.....

    ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II: “Pastors must ensure that the practices do not degenerate into false piety, superstition or magic. The best remedy against ever possible deviations is to permeate these manifestations of popular piety with the word of the Gospel. Devotions to the saints, expressed in feast days, images, processions and so many other forms of piety, should not be reduced to merely seeking protection of material goods or bodily health. The saints must first of all be presented to the faithful as models of how to live and as imitators of Christ.”
