Featured Term (selected at random):

ST. MICHAEL SCAPULAR

It is designed as a shield, and one part is blue, the other black, and the connecting bands are blue and black. Each part has a picture of St. Michael slaying the dragon, and the inscription, "Who is like God?" It is a badge of the Confraternity of St. Michael. It was approved by Pope Leo XIII.

Interesting. I have been wearing the Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Scapular for a couple of years now. I went to Mt. Carmel High School in Chicago. We all wore them.

Here is the St. Michael Scapular. Kind of nice looking...

You Carmel people are hardcore about your scapulars.

Which is cool.
