About the Our Lady of Mount Carmel Novena

The Our Lady of Mount Carmel Novena is a traditional nine-day prayer that honors the Blessed Virgin Mary under her title of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This devotion is deeply connected to the Carmelite Order and the Brown Scapular, which Mary gave to St. Simon Stock in the 13th century.

The title "Our Lady of Mount Carmel" reminds us of Mary's promise to those who wear the Scapular faithfully: protection in life, comfort at death, and freedom from purgatory. Through this novena, we seek Mary's intercession for grace, protection, and deeper devotion to her Son, Jesus Christ.

This novena helps us to grow in faith, hope, and love while seeking Mary's powerful intercession for our needs and intentions, especially through the protection of the Scapular.
