OUR VISION
To send the love,
peace, healing, grace and conversion from our Heavenly Father,
Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit to everyone
 who is asking, seeking and
knocking! Through the intercession of holy Mother Mary, Queen
of the Green Scapular, she leads all souls to her Son, Jesus! Our members love Jesus Christ and honor His holy Mother Mary and
are committed to praying for you, your loved ones. We
especially pray for our Pope, Benedict XVI and all Priests,
Deacons, Religious and Catholics around the world. We pray daily
for world peace and all humanity, no matter what race, creed, or
religious affiliation.

OUR MISSION
Since 1997, our Apostolate has made
and mailed millions of blessed Green Scapulars to anyone requesting
them free of charge. When you order "free" green scapu lars, you will receive 14 "blessed" Scapulars and
information brochure on: consecrating your loved ones
to Jesus through Mary, protecting your family, home, the history of the Green Scapular
and other prayers. No cord
is attached to our Scapulars for wearing, we ask that you simply
write your name and your loved ones names on a blessed Green
Scapular, thus joining a network of millions of other Apostles
around the world and consecrating him or her to Jesus through
Mother Mary. Read

FOR THE SAKE OF THE CHURCH
Though not all the details are known,
during an exorcism at the Vatican, a demon stated that evil goes
after Catholic Priests first to destroy him, next he goes after the
Catholic family. Certainly we know that Catholic families are
under attack from every possible source. Media glorifies sin,
sexual perversion, evil addictions, physical violence against
others, etc. The dignity of humanity is at a critical point,
the slaughter of the most innocent is not given a voice and is
destroyed because they are an inconvenience to their parents, or
the elderly or disregarded in nursing homes to die a sorrowful
death alone.
For this reason, Jesus calls each
member of this Apostolate to consecrate souls to Jesus through Mary
by writing names of our loved ones directly on these blessed Green
Scapulars. The green scapulars are used for SPIRITUAL
CONVERSION AND PHYSICAL HEALINGS. In humility, we write our
own name on a blessed green scapular first! We then write our
family members, our friends, business associates, even our enemies
to Jesus, through Mary. So too, we must consecrate all
Catholic Priests to Jesus, through Mother Mary, because we want
each Catholic Priest to become a "SUPER SAINT."

PROTECT OUR CATHOLIC PRIESTS
There is no doubt that our Parish
Priests are under great tribulations. Today, our beloved
Catholic Priests carry with them great burdens and sorrows.
They have been abandoned and disregarded in their own Catholic
churches, spoken of with disdain in the media, judged and condemned
without so much as a word spoken in their own defense.
Here is what Sacred Scripture states about our Priests:
"For he is
God's minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which
is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he
is God's minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth
evil. Wherefore be subject of necessity, not only for wrath,
but also for conscience' sake. For therefore also you pay
tribute. For they are the ministers of God, serving unto this
purpose. Render therefore to all men their dues.
Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to who custom: fear to
whom fear: honor, to whom honor." (Romans 13:4-7)
Also we read in St. James 5:19-20:
"My brethren, if any of you err from the truth, and one convert
him: He must know that he who caused a sinner to be converted from
the error of his way, shall save his soul from death, and shall
cover a multitude of sins." |

OUR PRAYER WARRIORS
We are requesting all Apostolate
Members to join us in a special and holy way by becoming a Prayer
Warrior! We are a network of love and we demonstrate our love
to others through our prayers. We offer you the opportunity
to join the Apostolate of the Green Scapular and networking your
love, prayers, sacrifices and much more by registering your prayer
devotion such as: reading the Holy Bible, reciting your Rosary or
Chaplet of Divine Mercy, and especially offing your Holy Eucharist
for others who are in great need of your mercy. When you
register and order your own "free" blessed Green Scapular kit, you
can sign-up to offer your daily, weekly or monthly prayers for all
Apostles around the world.

OUR PRAISE REPORTS
I am pleased to be
associated with the Apostolate of the Green Scapular. I have
realised the closeness of our Mother Mary, her love for me; how
much she cares for each one of us. I have learnt many things
in these 8 months being associated with the group. This
gathering for prayer has given me a chance to learn the importance
of prayer. Listening to the testimonies during such meetings
has given me a sense of joy and delight of the wonderful works of
our Mother. I have realised the importance of the Green
Scapular myself. My father (76 yrs old) was severely ill in
the month of January/February 08. My mother placed the green
scapulars in the four corners of the house. Then subsequently
my father started recovering. You
