St. Michael Scapular	Jon	Sunday, December 9, 2012
Question: I was was wondering if anyone here knew the indulgences or practices associated with the Scapular of Saint Michael. Thanks!
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OMSM(r) Dear Jon: There are no indulgences assigned to the St. Michael Scapular. Wearing this scapular, however, is a sign of one's devotion to this great angel. There are prayers, novena, and chaplets in honor of St. Michael that one may use in devotion. Indulgence #54, however, gives a partial indulgence for anyone offering designated prayers in honor of a Saint on his feast day: 54. A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful, who on the feast of any Saint recite in his honor the oration of the Missal or any other approved by legitimate Authority. St. Michael's feast day is September 29th. God Bless, Bro. Ignatius Mary Footer Notes: This forum is for general questions on the faith.
