In addition to the
four conditions of the Fatima message, Sister Lucy answered
to Father Howard Rafferty, O.Carm., on August 15, 1950: |
"Everyone
... seems to think that there are only four conditions of the Fatima
Message ..."
"There is one more
condition - ‘the wearing of the Brown
Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel,’ "
Father replied:
"You mean that if one did all four
things, but did not wear the
Scapular [of Mount Carmel], he would not fulfill what
Our Lady asked for at Fatima?"
Sister Lucy answered:
"He could not fulfill what
the Blessed Mother asked for at Fatima if he refused to wear the
Scapular!"
Father
replied:
"Do you mean to say that
the wearing of the Brown Scapular is not just something Our
Lady would like us to do, but that it is essential to the Message?"
Sister Lucy answered:
"Exactly!" said Sister
Lucy, one
could not follow the Message of Fatima unless
he fulfilled the five
conditions, one of which is the wearing of the Brown Scapular all the
time —day and night."
