The Blue Scapular Prayer Book

45 The Role of the Scapular The role of the scapular in the history of the world is similar to that of the rosary. It is intended as a sign of conversion, unity with God, and daily striving for holiness. As St. Dominic prophesied in the 13th century to Br. Angelus: “One day, through the rosary and the scapular, the Most Holy Virgin Mary will rescue the world.”
