The Scriptures speak of the beauty of Mt. Carmel in Galilee where the Prophet Elijah defended the faith of Israel in the living God. There at the beginning of the 13
th century, under the title of Our Lady of Mt Carmel” the Order of Carmelites had its formal beginning.
Our parish is blessed that a group of secular (lay) Carmelites meets monthly at Our Lady of Sorrows. We wish them a most happy and blessed Feast Day!
