Our Lady of Mount Carmel

Mary is Mother and Sister. She represents all humanity athirst for God. She is the meeting place of the Divine Response, of the Divine Coming, of God's Espousal with humanity ...she is the desert that flowers at the breath of God ...her beauty is without spot, her purity is absolute "...the beauty of Carmel will be given you..."(Isaiah 35:2)
