Order of Carmelites

Flowers of Carmel

“It is a great joy for me, a Carmelite of the mitigated branch, to be allowed to take part in the choir of praise sung in honor of St. John of the Cross, who has been, together with St. Teresa, the reformer of our Order. It gives me pleasure to have occasion here to tender my small mite of glory; to be the interpreter of what I am sure all Carmelites of the mitigated observance see with me in this hero of Carmel, called by God, to restore its ancient glory, to make that glory, the glory of his mystical gifts of grace, glow more brightly.”

St. Titus Brandsma
