Patroness

“All that is beautiful and to be cherished in the Apostolic Carmel is summed up in Mary, Queen Beauty of Carmel.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary in her role as patroness of the Carmelite Order. The first Carmelites were Christian hermits living on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land, during the late 12th and early to mid-13th century.

Carmel school, Jalda is named after Our Mother Mary and every year the school celebrates its Patroness Day on 16th July.

Let Mary be our Beacon Light. May she spread her mantle of love and protection over us.

Mary, Mother and Patroness of Carmel, Pray for us.
