Feast of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel 2008

This news is a little bit late, but better late than never.

July 16 is the feast of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, and similar to last year's celebration, a novena mass was held every afternoon at Carmel of the Holy Spirit, Subic, Zambales. Home of the Carmelite Nuns and the OCDS, St Teresa and John of the Cross Community.

This year we were truly blessed for not only the bishop of the Diocese of Zambales, Bishop Florentino Lavarias, D.D. and the Diocesan Priest of the province held a con celebrated mass in the morning but joining them too was Bishop Teodoro Bacani, D.D.

Aside from this, a con celebrated mass was also held in the afternoon with Rev. Fr. Gerry Orbos, SVD leading the celebration.

Unluckily for me, I was not able to attend the celebration in the afternoon, although I was able to attend the mass in the morning. It was my girlfriend Richelle who was able to attend the afternoon mass in which she took this picture via her cellphone camera.
