All Carmelite Saints Day

If you're a Catholic, you are aware of the feast days known as All Saints and All Souls.

Did you know that there are feast days specifically for Carmelites that are in the same ilk as those feast day? They even follow each other, one day immediately after the other, as All Saints and All Souls of the larger Church.

On the Carmelite calendar, yes the orders have order specific calendars, today is the celebration of All Carmelite Saint. Tomorrow, November 15th, is the Feast of All Carmelite Souls.

So,

Happy All Carmelite Saints Day!

Consider asking the Carmelite saints to pray for a special intention today and be sure to offer a prayer tomorrow for the Carmelites who may be in Purgatory anticipating Heaven.
