Ave Maria!
St. Teresa of Avila called Carmel "the Order of the Virgin.?? St. John of the Cross credited Mary with saving him from drowning as a child, leading him to Carmel and helping him escape from prison. St. Theresa of the Child Jesus believed that Mary cured her from illness. On her First Communion she dedicated her life to Mary. During the last days of her life she frequently spoke of Mary.
At Lourdes in 1858, the Virgin chose to make Her last apparition on July 16th, feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, the day the Church commemorates Her apparition to Saint Simon Stock. And at Fatima on October 13, 1917, it is as Our Lady of Mount Carmel that Mary appeared when She said farewell to the three children. (Saints of the Day)
Come now and listen to Fr. Angelo share with us the last will and testament of Christ on the cross, as He entrusted His Mother to us.
Ave Maria!
