Scapular of Saint Joseph

The Scapular of Saint Joseph is a Roman Catholic devotional scapular, intended as a reminder of the virtues attributed to Joseph: humility, modesty and purity.

On 15 April, 1898, Leo XIII granted to the General of the Capuchins the faculty of blessing and investing the faithful everywhere with this scapular.

[3] Due to the multiple sources for the scapular, the colors may be in combination, having white, gold and purple.

The front of the scapular depicts Joseph carrying the infant Jesus, and a lily in the other hand.

The back panel features the Papal Arms, a dove (to symbolize the Holy Ghost) and a Cross.
