Recently Departed Carmelite Priests and Brothers
During my three years as Provincial, twenty-five Carmelites have died,” said the Very Reverend John F. Russell,
O.Carm.,S.T.D., Prior Provincial. “They leave behind a legacy of generous and caring service. We miss their
presence among us.”
Since our last issue of The Carmelite Review, nine Carmelites have gone to their eternal rest bringing the total
deceased during the last three years to twenty-five. These men have given their lives to Gods community. Please take a
moment to remember and pray for all our dear departed Carmelite priests and brothers, and especially those who have
recently left us.
One Thing I Ask of the Lord; This I Seek – To Dwell in the House of the Lord All the Days of My Life...
...To Gaze on the Lord’s Beauty,
and to Behold His Temple. –Psalm 27:4
