🙏 NOVENA TO ST CHARBEL — https://youtu.be/OxgBzGf1eMY

The Novena begins this Wednesday, July 15. We will post the prayers each day of the novena for those wanting to participate.

St. Charbel, the miraculous Maronite monk and hermit of Lebanon, lived a hidden life of prayer, penance, and deep devotion to the Eucharist. After his death, God revealed his sanctity to the world through an incorrupt body and a heavenly fragrance that radiated from his tomb — signs that continue to draw the faithful to his intercession today. Known especially for miraculous healings and powerful help in "impossible" causes, St. Charbel remains a refuge for anyone carrying a difficult intention, seeking healing, or in need of hope.

The feast day of St. Charbel is Friday, July 24.

Gracious Lady, when you gave us the Scapular as our Habit, you called us to be not only servants, but also your own children. We ask you to gain for us from your Son the grace to live as you children in joy, peace and love.

Most Holy Mary, Our Mother, in your great love for us you gave us the Holy Scapular of Mount Carmel, having heard the prayers of your chosen son Saint Simon Stock. Help us now to wear it faithfully and with devotion. May it be a sign to us of our desire to grow in holiness.

✝️ PRAYER FOR A HAPPY DEATH — https://youtu.be/Csjzn8wtcKk
(Though the Intercession of Jesus and Mary)

Death is the one appointment none of us can cancel, yet it’s often the topic we’re least willing to sit with. Scripture doesn’t ask us to fear it — it asks us to be ready for it. “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour” (Matthew 25:13). Readiness, not dread, is what our Faith calls us to.

This is exactly why the Church has treasured prayers like this one for centuries. The devotion for a happy death traces back to 1648, when it was founded in Rome and soon received papal approval — a sign of just how seriously the Church has always taken this preparation.

A happy death isn’t something we’re granted in a single moment at the end. It’s something we prepare for daily, through lives turned toward God, and through prayers exactly like this one. Reciting it each day isn’t an act of morbid fixation — it’s an act of trust. We entrust the hour we cannot control to the God who already holds it, and we ask Our Lady, Refuge of Sinners and Mother of the Dying, to stand with us when that hour comes.

Whatever tomorrow holds, let today be the day we prepare for it in faith, not fear.

🙏 Come Join Us In Prayer!

🙏 OUR LADY OF MT CARMEL Novena — https://youtu.be/7rysuuRRB-4

The "Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel" begins this Tuesday, July 7th. We will post the prayers daily each day throughout the novena for anyone who is interested in participating.

The Virgin Mary appeared to Saint Simon Stock on July 16, 1251, and presented him with the Brown Scapular — two small pieces of cloth connected by cords and worn over the shoulders. She promised that those who faithfully wore the scapular and lived a life of devotion would receive her special protection and intercession.

Mount Carmel is a mountain range in the Holy Land, where a community of hermits settled in the 12th century and dedicated their lives to God under Mary's patronage — becoming the Carmelite Order. Mary has been honored as Our Lady of Mount Carmel ever since.
