St. Elijah

Our lady of Mt. Carmel
MAY WE EMBRACE MARY'S PURITY OF HEART (PURITAS CORDIAS), AS SHE HELPS US PONDER THE LAW OF THE LORD DAY AND NIGHT ASSISTING US TO BE CONTEMPLATIVES AND TEACHING US TO LISTEN. AS WE WALK IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF OUR FATHER AND LEADER ST. ELIJAH; WITH HIS FLAMING ZEAL AND COURAGE WHICH ALLOWED HIM TO COMBAT THE EVILS OF HIS DAY. MAY WE PRAY THAT HIS PROPHET SPIRIT BE AN INTEGRAL PART OF OUR CARMELITE LIFE.

Lay Carmelites are part of the Family of Carmel – hermits, nuns, sisters and friars. They are involved in the mission of the Church to contribute to the sanctification of the world by living the Carmelite Charism according to one’s particular state in life. The Lay Carmelite lives this spirituality after the examples of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and the Prophet Elijah.
