The Green Scapular is Church Approved
SN asks: I ordered some green scapulars from the Apostolate of the Green Scapular . . . I received 14 blessed scapulars that were blessed by a priest . . . You write the name of the person on the scapular that you want to receive the blessings/conversions and place the scapular in their vicinity either knowing or unknowingly. Every day you recite their name and Immaculate Heart of Mary pray for us now and at the hour of death. They say the scapular is as only as powerful as the user believes it will work. Is this approved by the Catholic Church?”
