Our Lady of Mt. Carmel
O Most beautiful flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in this my necessity.
O Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein You are my Mother.
O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech You from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this necessity. There are none that can withstand Your power.
Blessed Mother keep our children under the protection of your loving mantle and Immaculate heart that they may grow in grace and virtue to know and do the will of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Friday was the feast of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel. At their baptism, each of our children was consecrated to her. To celebrate, we’ll be enjoying some brown scapular brownies for dessert tonight!
