I wear a Miraculous Medal because I did a Marian consecration.

When I was little, I used to wear a brown scapular.
 
I wear my brown scapular everyday and I attached a Miraculous Medal and a Saint Benedict Jubilee medal to it. I was inspired by the sermons I saw on YouTube and read readings from the Saints on the brown scapular.
It is very comforting to know that the promise of our lady has been extended to even the laity.

I wear a Miraculous Medal, one of St. Clare, one of Our Lady of Consolation, one of St. Audrey, and one of Saint Rose of Lima. Wearing them makes me feel close to the Saints.
 
I wear a Miraculous Medal. I’m not sure what inspired it, actually. It was a gift based on a conversation I had with my husband. I wanted to wear something Marian, and I was more drawn to it than I was to the Brown Scapular.
 
St Benedict crucifix, brown scapula with Holy Face medal pinned to it , Miraculous medal on same chain as Crucifix
 
My MM is on a necklace. According to St. Catherine, the BVM specified that it be worn around the neck. But, of course we shouldn’t be superstitious about it, so…

I wear a Miraculous Medal and sometimes I also wear additional medals (or have them in my pocket), such as:
  • St. Therese of Lisieux
  • St. Michael the Archangel
  • St. Benedict Medal
  • St. Padre Pio
  • St. Maximilian Kolbe
  • St. Francis of Assisi
  • St. Mother Teresa
  • St. Anthony of Padua
Plus, I need to get a St. Dominic medal since I’m discerning a vocation with the Lay Dominicans.

I started wearing them (or carrying them) once I received them. I also have a Miraculous Medal on my keychain.

God Bless
 
Mine have been gifts mostly. I wear the brown scapular because , family traditionperhaps.
I wear St Michael and Miraculous medals. I have a medal that was put on the tomb of the founder of my order, his cause to sainthood has been open for a while.
 
I wear a St. Benedict medal, a Holy Face of Jesus medal and an Angelic Warfare Confraternity medal. I used to wear a scapular but it broke and I haven’t replaced it yet.

Fivefold scapular (wool) with aluminum Crucifix and St. Benedict Medal. Sometimes I wear just the Scapular Medal for exercise. Started at first communion with the Brown Scapular and later changed to the fivefold with enrollment in three confraternities (Trinitarian, Servite, Marian).

(Please Note: This uploaded content is no longer available.)
 
Would you mind explaining to me in more detail about the five fold scalar? What exactly is it, and can you just wear it or do you need special enrollments and special prayers every day, or join some thing? Thanks.

I wear a crucifix with a miraculous medal round my neck. A brown scapular. A hardware store type chain around my wrist following St Louis De Montfort’s sugestion. And I always wear a rosary bracelet because I can’t wear anything else around my neck and I like to have a rosary handy.
 
I have a medal for St. Lawrence and St. Nicholas I wear each day. They were gifts from my husband. They are the saints my sons are named after.
 
I wear the brown scapular and St. Benedict Crucifix. I also have a miraculous medal, St. Patrick and St. Michael medals on my rosary which is always around my wrist or in my pocket.
 
I wear a silver chain with a simple cross, a St. Ignatius of Loyola medal and a St. Mary Magdalene medal.
 
I wear (not 24/7) a Miraculous Medal which I had blessed when I visited Lourdes.

There were originally just four scapulars in the Redemptorist Scapular, approved that way in 1803, and then sometime later in 1847 the fifth Red Scapular was added. A person can still be enrolled in three, since Brown Scapular is not maintaining a role anymore.
