What are the requirements to obtain the 21 promises revealed to her? Does one have to pray all the prayers everyday?
The warning published by the Holy Office (Warning Concerning the “Promises of St. Bridget”) stated only that the promises were uncertain, as to their supernatural origin. It says nothing against the prayers, which have been in regular use since the Middle Ages. As to why the promises are still published along with the prayers, either Rome is being ignored, or Rome is thought to have changed its mind. Problematic for that theory is the fact that the Popes cited, Pius IX and Benedict XV, died before the Holy Office gave its warning, and there is no record of statements attributed to them. I don’t know what the “Decree of November 18, 1966, published in the Acta Apostolicae Sedis, Vol. 58, No. 16 of December 29, 1966” might be. If it had any bearing, it ought to have been quoted.
In short, the promises are questionable, but there is no reason why the prayers of St. Bridget shouldn’t be used, as they have been for many centuries.
