Never lose your Scapular again!

September 23, 2026 by Monica McConkey Leave a Comment

I’ve been invested with the Scapular, but I’ve often given up wearing it. I’ve been looking for a Scapular in the form of a necklace, and I finally found one I like on Amazon!

I have now been wearing this gold-plated, stainless steel Scapular for two months, almost 24/7! (I take it off when showering)
I’m pleased to say that it hasn’t tarnished and my skin has not turned blue or green from wearing it!
The pendants sit flat on the chest and on the back; one size fits all. The engraving is quite good for the price, and the chain is pretty and strong.
