What Should A Catholic Own?

[thursday63]

This book on devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. http://www.sistersofcarmel.com/devotion-to-the-sacred-heart-fr-jean-croiset.php. On the same website you can get a brown scapular of Mt Carmel. You will need a priest to enroll you into the congregation of the brown scapular. It is very short and no big deal. A picture of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and also a picture of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Is there anything else I need as a Catholic?

In addition to all the other fine advice you’ve received, I would say all you need is the discipline to use the articles you listed and study the texts diligently. Or, as has already been said, just be diligent and don’t focus obsessively on the objects you mention. Sometimes these things can become a roadblock to even the most ardent believer.

Actually, while the ceremony is not involved, being in the congregation (really in) should be a lifetime, life changing, experience; a very big deal.
