A supposed promise given to St Simon Stock, put in a Bull by Pope John XXII, ratified and modified by later Popes that says that on the first Saturday after death, Mary will redeem from Purgatory all of those who die wearing her Scapular [other conditions may apply as well].

Wow!

Thanks for the info.

You're welcome --

That's why Catholics shouldn't waste their time praying to Mary on Saturdays especially. It's hard to reach her on that day since she is out of the office, burning up the miles on that long road between heaven and purgatory, redeeming those scapular wearers :)
