Carmelite Sisters (OCD)
Novena to Our Lady of Mt. Carmel
Prayer for Every Day
July 8 – 16
Immaculate Virgin and Queen of Carmel, you
are the hope of the suffering and the
consolation of the afflicted. Look not upon my
sins, but remember only that I am a poor soul
redeemed by the Precious Blood of your Son, and
that my heart is sealed with your Son, and that
my heart is sealed with your holy Scapular. Hear
my prayer and if it be for the glory of God,
your honor and for the salvation of my soul,
grant what I ask in this Novena. Amen.
First Day
Prayer. The beauty of Carmel and the Glory of
Lebanon are given to you in your Immaculate
Conception, O Blessed Queen of Carmel! I also
rise from the sea of this world, not like you
all pure and Immaculate, but full of sin. Help
me, look upon me with your eyes of mercy. Amen.
Hail Mary (three times).
