I wear it on my left wrist cause it is more visible, and that helps me reflect and think of Our Lady, cause I look at it more often. Is that ok too? :0 or does it have to be worn in the neck?
I have a pendant of Our Lady of Carmel.... I found it 2 years ago...it was like I was drawn to it and I know nothing of Our Lady until I did some research
I wear the brown scapular and miraculous medal along with praying the rosary daily. I'm trying to become closer to the Blessed Virgin Mary and Our Lord, Jesus Christ 🙏
I pray for you brother, that you would know true peace in Christ, because only Jesus is the Prince of Peace. When you invite Him in your heart by asking His forgiveness and inviting Him to be Lord and Saviour of your life, He will come in and never leave. He gives us His Holy Spirit who will abide with us forever. We only need the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Stay blessed
I'm an aspiring Third Order Carmelite. Coincidentally, I got my first scapular today and all I could say was THANK YOU! Thank you our Father in heaven, thank you Lord Jesus Christ for giving us your mother, thank you Holy Spirit, Thank you St. Joseph, and of course thank you to our mama, our Stella Maris, the flower of Carmel, Mother Mary! In times of confusion and worry I would always kiss my scapular, it really feels like I'm always being hugged by her and it gives me a lot of comfort knowing she's always with me. Our Lady of Mount Carmel, please pray for us. Please bless my brothers and sisters who are also watching this video, and guide us to the Holy Mountain, Christ our Lord. Amen! 🤎

I remember when I was a teenager at high school 🏫 I was wearing a Brown scapular that my grandmother from my mom's side gave it to me but it was messed up, I wish I could wear a Brown scapular again, may Our Lady of Mount Carmel intercede for us through Christ our Lord.

@@stefanopicardi3016 You can indeed and it's considered correct form to simply go and purchase another when the former is damaged or otherwise unwearable.

Thank you tremendously for your beautiful explanation of the scapular. I've been wearing mine for the past 13 years. Only remove it to shower. It brings me closer to our most Holy Mother and our Lord on a daily basis. Thank you again. 🙏🏻✝️❤️
I just received my Scapular today . Felt so much joy and peace when I wore it . I’m hoping things turn out better for me Since 2011 strange things started to happen to me and changed my life … It’s been a couple of years since I have been tormented by evil thoughts and dark visions and even horrible voices. So bad that I am now celibate. I’m keeping my Faith and asking for your prayers for a peaceful night sleep . Thank you
Thank you for telling us where this was filmed. As soon as I started watching the video, my first thought was, I gotta google where this church is at 😊.
Thank you, I think many people have these questions and answered them so less people there who doesn't know. 😊 It's good to know, and beautiful the way you tell us about the Brown Scapular.
Thank you Father for this video! I actually started to wear the scapular recently as I did the Our Lady of Mount Carmel novena. Before I kept it under my pillow next to my rosary, but I will make a habit to wear it more.❤
My friend, who happens to be a Catholic priest, this morning Sunday, July 21, 2024. Gave me the Five-Fold scapular. This has the blue, immaculate Virgin Mary, black, Our Lady of Sorrows, brown for Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This is written in the detaiks. It says back, thr white or blessed Trinity. Fiive-Fold which is the fabric is red. Came with a crucifix and a St Benedict medal. I still have the brown one as well. Thanks for this video, Father.
All that plus a Rosary and you are as protected as you can be! You can buy pocket rosaries, or “ring rosaries”. Also, I would recommend having the St Benedict medal blessed with its specific blessing (it’s a little long - you can find it online).
Thank you father, i was born on the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. That was 71years ago and i still have a statue of her that was given to my Mother when i was born. I also have the Scapular. Strange, my name is Carmel ha! Thank you father.❤
Please pray for me and my wife. We miscarried our first baby and the due date was originally 7/16/24. Your birthday and the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.
Thank you this clarified so much! I sweat a lot and the cloth rubbing my skin tends to irritate so in lieu of the cloth I got a gold plated one and I dont take it off. I was worried it wasnt appropriate and this clarifications was very reassuring. thank you Fr.!
I was wondering too because I am allergic to wool, and I think it started affecting my allergies , sinuses, but definitely skin itchiness. Now I will get a scapular medal. I so appreciate this video and information Father. 🙏😊
Thank you, Father. I just purchased a brown scapular and I can’t wait for my priest to bless it so I can wear it. I had forgotten about this sacramental until recently. I’m a Catholic who’s recently come back to the Church. I thank God that He’s allowed me to live long enough to return to my faith. I’m on fire 🔥 for the Lord ❤
When I first watched this video, I was about to receive the brown scapular. I since have and take joy in growing closer to our Blessed Virgin Mary and our risen Lord, Jesus Christ. Praying the Little Office and the Rosary daily has lifted up my soul. Whatever happens in my life, I know I'm on the right side.
I've been wearing the brown scapular for years and never take it off. However, it was blessed and I just was enrolled in the scapular a few days ago. I wear it always even in the shower. It sounds silly but, many deaths occur from people falling in the shower. God Bless. Claire.
Thank you, Father, for your explanation about the brown scapular. It was simple and clear, which is what I need. I didn't really understand your comment, though, about enrolling in the scapular. I was just going to buy one at our St. Pauline centre but now I will look into it. God bless you.
Needed this clarification! Some resources on the scapular don't sound this reasonable and created a sense of scrupulosity in me. A spiritual anxiety that I was doing something wrong if I took the scapular off to sleep or something. This brings me peace and let's me see the motherly sense of the Blessed Virgin much better.
My husband was just enrolled there too while we visited with Fr Mariusz as our spiritual director of the pilgrimage. Amazing spiritual place.. I was enrolled during my first communion as a child..
I love you Our Lady of Mount Carmel thank you for your powerful intercession. I was recently given a brown scapular necklace of Our Lady. I feel so blessed now that I understand the significance of it! She has been calling me to pray to her more often lately I couldnt stop having natural visions of the picture of Our Lady of Mount Carmel the one where she's wearing the gold earrings holding the baby Jesus. Prayer To The Blessed Virgin(Never Known To Fail) Most beautiful Flower of Mount Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin assist me in this my necessity. Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my mother. Holy Mary Mother of God. Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart, to succor me in this necessity. (Make Request) There are none that can withstand your power. O, show me herein you are my Mother, conceived without sin, and pray for us who have recourse to thee (3X) O Holy Mary I place this cause in your hands (3X) Sweet Mother, I place this cause in your hands.

I asked my pastor to pray for my enrollment with the scapular. I made an appointment through his secretary to talk with him at his office in the Church and have a statue of the Holy Family blessed too. Father is so busy talking to many people after Mass, so an appointment worked out well.
Thank you for helping me understand this better. I know a priest is required to do the enrollment. Could a permanent Deacon administer a blessing for the scapular?If it was just going to be warn as a blessed sacramental?
"Thank you for explaining the brown scapula. I noticed one day.tha a new parishoner in our church wasweaving one . Somehow on our conversation I mentioned that you have to do more than just wear a scapularqq. Was I wrong in saying that? She no longer attends our church not because of that. She had a disagreement over bringing a large qqog to church.
#AskAscension I have a rather complex, rather special problem, that I wanted and needed to discuss with a priest now, but German priests are rather fixed on a certain answer for my question. Is there any chance I could talk with a priest on Zoom or the like to discuss this issue. I would be so immensely grateful! Stay blessed, Anke
This was great and all but he didn’t answer the first question? Am I a bad catholic if I don’t wear the scapular? Will I still get to heaven if I don’t? Will I still be protected by our lady if I don’t? Personally, I hate wearing things around my neck and I don’t even like wearing necklaces all the time. Does this make me a worse catholic than those who do?
Like he said in the video, a scapular is a sacramental, a way to encourage our faith. We do not place our hope for our salvation in an object, but in Christ and His church. Wearing a small scapular was not common among Christian laity until relatively recently. If you have anxiety and worries, pray about it, and speak to your priest.
Can I make my own scapular, with brown wool and embroidery (and have it blessed of course)? The one I have is covered in plastic and I wound like a 100% wool one, but it is hard to find in my country. I love to sew my one clothing and so on, and ones to love the scapular as well, but hate the felling of plastic on skin.
I feel a strong calling to enroll into the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and I have reached out to different churches in NYC where I live for information about how to go about it but never got a response from any of them. What’s the best way to find a church that’s willing to enroll me into the Brown Scapular? What am I doing wrong?
Can you be enrolled in the brown scapular and miraculous medal before you are baptised and received into the church? I am only just starting RCIA but we have a day with Mary next month at our cathedral where they will also enrol people.
The Brown Scapular must be made of woven wool of a Carmelite Colour. Measuring two inches by two and three quarter inches. Carmelite colours are either brown or black. The straps can be of any fabric. And it is compulsory to be enrolled. In addition the words of the enrollment must be correct. This was presented to Pope Leo 13 by the Sacred Congregation of cardinals who upon discovering that their was confusion over the design, material and size of the scapular, made recommendations for design, fabric and size, to the Pope who gave it his approval and blessing.
Aughh as a Catholic I wish this did not bother me but it does. It just sounds so wrong. I mean this with no disrespect, I respect Mary so much but I feel like as Catholics we put so much attention to her and to these items.
It is wrong. Read your Bible. Pray to the Lord Jesus. He will show you the Truth. He is the Truth. There is no intermediary. You don't need magic pieces of cloth. You need Jesus.
@@melanieb7053 ““If your brother sins [against you], go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won over your brother.” Matthew 18:15 NABRE “I urge you, [brothers,] by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in the struggle by your prayers to God on my behalf, that I may be delivered from the disobedient in Judea, and that my ministry for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the holy ones, so that I may come to you with joy by the will of God and be refreshed together with you.” Romans 15:30-32 NABRE Asking for the intercession of others is biblical and probably something you practice. Jesus commands we pray for others and ask others to pray in intercession that we may come closer to Jesus. I don’t know why you Protestants hate Mary so much but it’s shameful, sinful, and ugly in the eyes of the Lord. You should probably actually read your Bible next time you’re confused about something so simple.
I wonder why you say it doesn't need to be wool, I make scapulars and I searched high and low for a document with specifications, and the only authoritative (with an imprimater) document I found did specify woven wool, and said when brown woven wool couldn't be found to use black woven wool. I don't go around telling people their scapular is made wrong, like you said, I believe Our Lady understands, but we should at least try to get it right.
My 13 year old daughter climbed out of the 12th floor and was found dead on the first floor in the sleeping Saint Joseph position. She was wearing the brown scapular but she wasn’t enrolled. Is she saved?

Thank you.
New Catholic Classics co-host? I’ve been trying to figure out the next book🙂
I have the brown scapular and one of Divine Mercy Jesus Christ and on other side Blessed Mother Mary. I wear them everyday
Amen 🙏
Amen.
Icons and Idols...
JOHN 4:23-24 KJV
So to clarify, we would have the same protection from a metal Scapular? I always thought it had to be the brown fabric? Thank you for your video!
How do I enroll in the brown scapular?
Talk to a Catholic priest to impose it on you.
When my old scapular needs replacing, do I need to get the new scapular blessed?
Hello father can someone explain how to enroll in the brown scapular
I asked my pastor to pray for my enrollment with the scapular. I made an appointment through his secretary to talk with him at his office in the Church and have a statue of the Holy Family blessed too. Father is so busy talking to many people after Mass, so an appointment worked out well.
@@sandyshore8787 update: I got enrolled a couple
Of months ago 🙏❤️
Does one need to be enrolled in it or is it as simple as having a priest bless you and put it on you?
Where can I buy it from?
I have a goofy question. Is there a front side and back side? Does it matter which way you put it on?
Thank you for helping me understand this better. I know a priest is required to do the enrollment. Could a permanent Deacon administer a blessing for the scapular?If it was just going to be warn as a blessed sacramental?
I’ve worn scapular’s off n on for a few decades, in some instances, i’d rather twine over my wrist. How acceptable is this?
Where can I get a scapular?
True: I ordered one off Amazon. Can I just wear it?
"Thank you for explaining the brown scapula. I noticed one day.tha a new parishoner in our church wasweaving one . Somehow on our conversation I mentioned that you have to do more than just wear a scapularqq. Was I wrong in saying that? She no longer attends our church not because of that. She had a disagreement over bringing a large qqog to church.
Where to buy brown scapular
#AskAscension I have a rather complex, rather special problem, that I wanted and needed to discuss with a priest now, but German priests are rather fixed on a certain answer for my question. Is there any chance I could talk with a priest on Zoom or the like to discuss this issue. I would be so immensely grateful! Stay blessed, Anke
I was told it has to be 100% wool. Unless your Allergic to wool than the silver chain is fine
This was my priest when I was a child
This was great and all but he didn’t answer the first question? Am I a bad catholic if I don’t wear the scapular? Will I still get to heaven if I don’t? Will I still be protected by our lady if I don’t? Personally, I hate wearing things around my neck and I don’t even like wearing necklaces all the time. Does this make me a worse catholic than those who do?
Like he said in the video, a scapular is a sacramental, a way to encourage our faith. We do not place our hope for our salvation in an object, but in Christ and His church.
Wearing a small scapular was not common among Christian laity until relatively recently.
If you have anxiety and worries, pray about it, and speak to your priest.
@@MikePasqqsaPekiM thank you ☺️
Can I make my own scapular, with brown wool and embroidery (and have it blessed of course)?
The one I have is covered in plastic and I wound like a 100% wool one, but it is hard to find in my country. I love to sew my one clothing and so on, and ones to love the scapular as well, but hate the felling of plastic on skin.
I feel a strong calling to enroll into the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and I have reached out to different churches in NYC where I live for information about how to go about it but never got a response from any of them. What’s the best way to find a church that’s willing to enroll me into the Brown Scapular? What am I doing wrong?
How does one get enrolled?
Can you be enrolled in the brown scapular and miraculous medal before you are baptised and received into the church? I am only just starting RCIA but we have a day with Mary next month at our cathedral where they will also enrol people.
Hello father - can I make my own medal scapular and get it blessed?
I assume this question has been asked many times... How does one get enrolled in the scapular?
Ask a priest to enroll you.
What does he mean "enrolled"?
The Brown Scapular must be made of woven wool of a Carmelite Colour. Measuring two inches by two and three quarter inches. Carmelite colours are either brown or black. The straps can be of any fabric. And it is compulsory to be enrolled. In addition the words of the enrollment must be correct. This was presented to Pope Leo 13 by the Sacred Congregation of cardinals who upon discovering that their was confusion over the design, material and size of the scapular, made recommendations for design, fabric and size, to the Pope who gave it his approval and blessing.
Aughh as a Catholic I wish this did not bother me but it does. It just sounds so wrong. I mean this with no disrespect, I respect Mary so much but I feel like as Catholics we put so much attention to her and to these items.
I think it’s beautiful. Dedicating your life to prayer to Mary and following Jesus is a great thing!
It is wrong. Read your Bible. Pray to the Lord Jesus. He will show you the Truth. He is the Truth. There is no intermediary. You don't need magic pieces of cloth. You need Jesus.
@@melanieb7053 ““If your brother sins [against you], go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won over your brother.”
Matthew 18:15 NABRE
“I urge you, [brothers,] by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in the struggle by your prayers to God on my behalf, that I may be delivered from the disobedient in Judea, and that my ministry for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the holy ones, so that I may come to you with joy by the will of God and be refreshed together with you.”
Romans 15:30-32 NABRE
Asking for the intercession of others is biblical and probably something you practice. Jesus commands we pray for others and ask others to pray in intercession that we may come closer to Jesus.
I don’t know why you Protestants hate Mary so much but it’s shameful, sinful, and ugly in the eyes of the Lord. You should probably actually read your Bible next time you’re confused about something so simple.
I wonder why you say it doesn't need to be wool, I make scapulars and I searched high and low for a document with specifications, and the only authoritative (with an imprimater) document I found did specify woven wool, and said when brown woven wool couldn't be found to use black woven wool.
I don't go around telling people their scapular is made wrong, like you said, I believe Our Lady understands, but we should at least try to get it right.
My 13 year old daughter climbed out of the 12th floor and was found dead on the first floor in the sleeping Saint Joseph position. She was wearing the brown scapular but she wasn’t enrolled. Is she saved?
Was she Christian? If she was then that should answer your question.
We are cradle Catholics
