So I bought a brown scapular

But I haven't been enrolled.

I took it to the parish priest with the paper that came with it and asked to be enrolled.

He said "What do you mean by 'enrolled?'  I think you mean that you want it [the scapular] blessed."

So he blessed the scapular and went on his way.

Now I have a blessed scapular that I can't wear yet.

You can wear it even if you aren't enrolled.

It sounds like a Novus Ordo "priest".  I would say that he wasn't a valid priest, therefore your scapular hasn't even been blessed.  What valid Priest, wouldn't know about enrolling someone in the Brown Scapular?

Please pray for Bishop Richard Williamson, a noble prelate whose wisdom and zeal for the truth have inspired many.
On October 23, 2012, the good Bishop was cast out of the SSPX, where he had labored tirelessly for 36 years.
His continued membership in the SSPX would have made a premature union with Rome more difficult.
