Beginning of Octave to God the Father of All Mankind

JMJT! Praise be Jesus Christ! Now and Forever!

Although it is not an exclusively Carmelite devotion, these prayers to Our Heavenly Father speak greatly of His love, mercy, and provision for all mankind. The spirit of Trinitarian love and trust in Our Lady's intercession is also seen. It is very contemplative in spirit, steeped in Scripture, and one of my favorites. Here is a bit of information with a link if you are interesting in praying it:

TO MAMA CARMELA:  26 May 1971
“Now I would like to make you understand how necessary it is that everyone raise their cry, invoking from the Father again and always, through His Incarnate Son, that mercy which you require”.
FEAST OF GOD THE FATHER

The Heavenly Father revealed to
MOTHER EUGENIA RAVASIO  that He wants the first Sunday in August set aside as the Feast of God the Father. And in preparation for the Feast Day He revealed 8 days of prayer leading up to it, with a Consecration to be recited on the Feast Day.  To learn more about Sr. Ravasio, click here: http://www.circleofprayer.com/the-father-speaks-Mother-Eugenia.html


St. Teresa's favorite prayer was the 'Our Father'.  Surely, she would be pleased with such an outpouring of love for Our Creator who is infinite love, and gave us His Only Begotten Son in the spirit of His Love.

May you be blessed and grow ever closer to Our Heavenly Father, who is the Father of All Mankind. Amen.
