In her autobiography, the Venerable Ursula Benicasa, foundress of the Order of Theatine Nuns, describes how the blue scapular was revealed to her, by Christ, in a vision as a means to honor the Immaculate Conception. She asked the Lord to extend the great favors he promised to her Order to the faithful who wear the blue scapular to secure the conversion of sinners. The scapular of the Immaculate Conception must be made of blue woolen cloth and usually bears a symbol of the Immaculate Conception on one piece and the name of Mary on the other. According to the General of the Theatines a priest may admit the faithful to the confraternity and bless the scapular, but must also forward the names of those admitted to Rome or another canonically approved confraternity of the same kind.
