Fivefold Scapular - The Red Scapular

The Red Scapular

The Red Scapular of the Passion was revealed to Sr. Appoline Andriveau, a Sister of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul in 1846. The Lord promised that whoever wore his Scapular he would grant a great increase of faith, hope, and charity every Friday (the office day of the Passion). The apparition was repeated several times, and in the following year, Blessed Pope Pius IX sanctified the sacramental on June 25, 1857.

Famous quotes containing the word red:

    The A B C of being,
    The ruddy temper, the hammer
    Of red and blue, the hard sound
    Steel against intimation the sharp flash,
    The vital, arrogant, fatal, dominant X.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
