Spiritual Reflections From a Priest in the Rockies
July 16 marks the Feast Day of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This mountain on the west coast of Israel was the site of many biblical events, most especially surrounding the life of Prophet Elijah. It was from Mt Carmel that Elijah witnessed a small cloud rising from the sea that would bring rain to the land of Israel that had been experiencing a long drought. The first Christians saw in that little cloud as a foreshadowing of the Blessed Virgin Mary, who would bring forth the Saviour of whom the rains of salvation would cleanse and refresh a world trapped in sin.
In the medieval times, hermits began to live on Mt Carmel and under the patronage of Our Lady sought to lead lives of contemplation and prayers. It was from there devotion that the Catholic World began to honour Mary under the title of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. In the Collect Prayer for the Mass of Our Lady of Mt Carmel, it asked that Mary lead us to the mountain who is Jesus Christ. May Our Lady ever lead our parish to this holy mountain!
In Jesus Through Mary,
Fr. Nathan Siray
