Carmelites remember earthquake victims

FB1The Carmelites are remembering in prayer and solidarity all those affected by the earthquake in Türkiye and Syria.

All good and all loving God, we come to you today in the face of horrific tragedy as we pray for those affected by the recent earthquakes in Türkiye and Syria.

Draw close to those who are injured and grant them healing. Comfort those families who have lost loved ones and bring them consolation.

Bless and protect those responding to this tragedy and guide their efforts. Inspire local, national and international leaders to support the people on the long journey of recovery.

And in each of us, Lord, inspire compassionate and loving action for our human family.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Carmelite Rule

A rule of life was given to the early Carmelites by St Albert Avogadro, Patriach of Jerusalem between the years 1206 - 1214. It was finally approved by Pope Innocent in 1247 and later underwent mitigations which were not in the original text.

The Carmelite Rule states that is basic for a Carmelite to "live a life of allegiance to Jesus Christ - how, pure in heart and stout in conscience, he must be unswerving in the service of his Master" [no.2].
