Is my Brown Scapular invalid?

[Nelka]

I have worm the brown scapular for many years and have had it blessed but I hear something about it needing a special enrolment done by a priest which I have never had done.

Does this mean that I need to have this done or is it too late?

Thanks.

You can always have it done. Why would you think otherwise?

Any priest? Do they know what to say?

Yes. Any priest.

I have read before that if you were enrolled in the Scapular by a priest; and maybe in the future, in case you want to replace or wear a new scapular, I read that you don’t need to have that new scapular blessed in order to be valid because you have been enrolled/blessed in the Scapular in the past. Is this correct?

It should be done. No, it’s not too late. Also, as Pythagoras said, once you have received the proper blessing, any scapular you wear in the future will have this blessed attached to it.
