thursday the 15th. as he is visiting from Iraq, and weYOU GO GIRL!!! I wanted to let you also know that I got an email from my OCDS president and she stated that we are to fast the day before any major feast day of the order. This friday, July 16th is the feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. We are therefore to fast on thursday for friday’s feast day. At our mass on that day, one of the OCD brothers is going to make his first vows and we as members of the order are invited to attend. We should wear our brown scapulars to this service. We are there to show our support of him and to attend the Mass of Our Lady. Oh what a beautiful day to make his vows! I got clothed with the scapular on June 19th, which is the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, also a wonderful day. There is so much to remember, but I will hopefully do better once I am more versed in the order. Have a great day and a great feast day! The Archbishop of Bagdad will also be saying Mass on as members of the order are also invited to attend Mass on that day. I happen to be off this thursday and friday, so you know where I will be on those two days. We do not have to wear our Brown scapular on thursday, but it is required on the friday service.

Joe, If you see my friend Fr. Pat be sure to say hi to him from Leo in Florida. Congrads on your clothing welcome to Carmel,. You are fortunate to be where you are (Holy Hill) it is a very Holy place, as well as beautiful.
