All Carmelite Saints
On this day the Order celebrates the memory of all its saints, those known and those unknown.
Prayer
Lord,
may the patronage
of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Mother,
and the prayers of all the saints of Carmel
help us to walk steadfastly in their footsteps,
and by our prayers and good works
to further the cause of your Church.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
