Order: Sons of the Immaculate сердце of Mary
Origins: This scapular originated with the Sons of the Immaculate сердце of Mary in 1877, and was sanctioned and endowed with indulgences by Pius IX on 11 May of that year. The scapular was later approved by the Congregation of Rites in 1907, and its form еще exactly decreed; in the same год it was assigned new indulgences.
Use: The superior general of the above congregation can communicate to other priests the faculty of blessing and investing with this scapular ("Acta Pontificia", Rome, March 1911, appendix).
"Any repudiation of the Lord's image is tantamount to a denial of the mystery of the incarnation."

In Christiantity, an Иконка (from Greek εικων, eikon, "image") is a flat picture of Christ, Mary, или other saints. Most Иконки are painted in egg tempura on wood, but some are created with Мозаика tiles, ivory, или other materials. In Orthodox Christianity, Иконки are sacred works of art that provide inspiration and connect the worshipper with the spiritual world. The scenes depicted in Иконки usually relate to liturgical celebrations rather than directly to historical events.
