Thank you for sharing the fact that you have been away from the Church for the past 40 years and you have came back home.
I also wear the Brown Scapular but I haven’t been enrolled or invested (wording?) in it…yet.
I used to Pray the Rosary more often while working graveyard shifts but I find I don’t Pray the Rosary as often as I should.
I’m still not sure if I’m Praying the Divine Mercy properly either but I still Pray the Divine Mercy and ask for the intercession of St. Faustina and Blessed Pope John Paul II

If you don’t mind can you please keep me and all of my intentions (especially my cousin’s husband) in your Prayers please and thank you.
Thanks for the sites. I’ll come back to them tomorrow or the next day. Had a long day of work. Just got up from praying. Time for bed.
Yea I was lost for a long time. But the Holy Spirit bought me home.
You really should enroll your Brown Scapular. Print this and give a copy to your priest,
*Enrollment and Blessing Formula
for the Brown Scapular
Priest: Show us, O Lord, Thy mercy.
All: And grant us Thy salvation.
Priest: O Lord, hear my prayer.
All: And let my cry come unto Thee.
Priest: The Lord be with you.
All: And with thy spirit.
Priest: Let us pray:
O Lord Jesus Christ, Savior of mankind, by Thy right hand sanctify + these Scapulars (this Scapular) which Thy servants will devoutly wear for the love of Thee and of Thy Mother; the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mt. Carmel; so that, by her intercession, they may be protected from the wickedness of the enemy and persevere in Thy grace until death; Who livest and reignest for ever and ever. Amen.
The priest now sprinkles the Scapular with Holy Water, after which he places the Scapular on each one saying:
Receive this blessed Scapular and ask the Most Holy Virgin that, by her merits, it may be worn with no stain of sin and may protect you from all harm and bring you into everlasting life. Amen.
After placing the Scapular on each person, the priest continues:
By the power granted to me, I admit you to a share in all the spiritual works performed with the merciful help of Jesus Christ, by the religious of Mount Carmel, in the name of the Father and of the Son + and of the Holy Ghost. Amen
May Almighty God, Creator of heaven and earth, bless + you whom He has been pleased to receive into the Confraternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel. We beg her to crush the head of the ancient serpent in the hour of your death, and, in the end, to obtain for you a palm and the crown of your everlasting inheritance. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen.
The priest now sprinkles those enrolled with Holy Water. *
There’s a big difference in graces and protection after enrollment. Mother Mary is so loving, sweet, and understanding. But she is so fearless and powerful. Evil has to move on.
*“If you don’t mind can you please keep me and all of my intentions (especially my cousin’s husband) in your Prayers please and thank you.” *
Done. You’re welcomed.
Wow! That is amazing! I think God has blessed you a lot!
Yes he has. I can feel the Divine Mercy.
Sacred Heart Of Jesus I Place All My Trust In You!
