Fr. Michael-Joseph Paris joins Patrick for his debut to discuss Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the Brown Scapular

• (4:32) What is the spirituality of the Carmelites?
• What makes our lady of mount Carmel different than other titles of Mary?
• (12:41) What is a sacramental?
• Pat - Every time I wear a scapular at work, they usually rip apart. If I get a new one, do I need to be re-enrolled? I also have a brown scapular medal. I was told by a Carmelite at Holy Hill that you do not have to have a prayer said over you if you replace the medal, but you do if you have a cloth one. Am I right or wrong. This was years ago.

(20:22) Break 1

• What is the history of the Brown Scapular?
• What is enrollment to the Brown Scapular?
• (28:15) Diane - I wear a medal, scapular medal. Supposed to be the same as cloth. Is that true and what has to be in place. Medal or cloth?
• Madonna - What is it with the different colors of scapulars, pink, blue, purple, etc.? Does that have anything to do with it?
• (32:46) Mary – I've been wearing one for 3 years. Is it inappropriate to wear it outside your clothing?
• Gina - My sister and I wore the scapular. Started 10 years ago. We got invested. Every time I think of that, I think of my sister.

(38:55) Break 2

• What are the promises of the brown scapular?
• (43:05) Juliana - If you're wearing a formal dress, could you pin the scapular or medal inside the garment or does it have to be worn around the neck?
• (45:14) Mike - How do you dispose of the scapular when it's time for a new one?
• Kelly - My mother died in the hospital. Wore it for forever. Hospital staff took it off. I didn't put it back on her. I've always been concerned about that.
