Our Lady of Mt. Carmel

Don’t forget today to say a prayer for our Carmelite brothers and sisters as they celebrate the feast of their patroness, Our Lady of Mount Carmel.  As you know, the Carmelite tradition has produced some of the Church’s greatest saints.  St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, St. Therese of Lisieux, Bl. Elizabeth of the Trinity, pray for us!

One of the Province’s new postulants, Jack Devaney, Jack Devaneywho entered the Order through St. Vincent’s, was interviewed recently on Sirius Radio’s The Catholic Channel.  Jack discusses with Fr. Dave Dwyer his gradual movement to the Order, including all of the sights and sounds (and silences) he enjoyed along the way.  Jack’s vocation story gives all of us a glimpse into the wonderful workings of divine providence.
