Submit Your Intentions: July 7 -15 Holy Masses imploring Our Lady of Mount Carmel & July 16 Feast Day Holy Mass

Dear Friend, 

The most-treasured feast day in July is Our Lady of Mount Carmel, also known as the Virgin of Carmel. It is a title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary, for she is the Patroness of the Carmelite Order.  The order began in the 12th century with Christian hermits living in caves on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land, where they dedicated their first chapel to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Now, Cloistered Carmelite Nuns, Carmelite Fathers, Brothers and Lay Carmelites around the world will soon begin a Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel before the July 16 Feast Day. 

Let us pray for:

The current state of the Catholic Church, where the number of Catholics has increased but the numbers of priests, seminarians and women religious have decreased.  

World affairs – for a peaceful resolution for all countries at war. 

The conversion of sinners, that we may not be lukewarm in our prayers, for those hardened in vices, the suffering souls in purgatory, our own personal intentions, as well as those of our loved ones. 

So, won’t you join me? I ask that you submit your intentions, which will be included in nine days of Holy Masses, from July 7 -15 and one Holy Mass on July 16, the feast day, where we will thank the Virgin of Carmel for favors granted and all the blessings we have received.

Together, let us spiritually climb that holy mountain with our prayers and sacrifices, as we prepare for the glorious Carmelite feast day, honoring Our Lady of Mount Carmel. 

Holy Mary, everlasting strength and mercy because of thy efficacious intercession, pray for us!

Embracing the love of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
