Dear members of the Carmelite Family,
May I wish you all a very happy Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This is the Order's principal celebration of our identification with Mary and the values she lived by.
She reminds us of that attentive listening to the Word and trying to make sense of it in our lives. She recalls that we struggle with and ponder on God's will every day as we make our choices. She shows us that the way to human fulfillment is to do God's will. This feast day helps us to refocus our lives on the person of Jesus Christ and the mission he has entrusted to us.
I hope that over the next few weeks you will all find some time for personal reflection and relaxation.
Happy Feast Day.
Fraternally,
Kevin Alban, Prior Provincial
