Questions About Being Invested in the Brown Scapular

[scrupulousrvrt]

Does anyone have a link to a website that clearly and concisely explains what the Brown Scapular devotion entails?

Thanks! Does saying a few Hail Marys in the morning and before bed count as a Marian Devotion?

 

[Fauken]

I’m not sure, but it may be meaning a more concrete/established one, like the rosary, Little Office of the BVM, Seven Sorrows rosary, etc.

Uh oh. I indiscriminately enrolled without being associated with a Confraternity! Is there a way to de-enroll or have myself “defrocked” ?
(Prudence isn’t my best virtue)

 

[Fauken]

I don’t think you have to be associated with a confraternity to be enrolled with the brown scapular, where’d you see that?

 

[scrupulousrvrt]

Right where it says “Well, what is the Scapular Confraternity?” On the website.

 

[Fauken]

Ah, there’s a difference between enrollment and being a part of the confraternity. You can be enrolled without joining the confraternity.

 

[scrupulousrvrt]

Ah, ok. Thanks, again!
