Carmelite sister, Saint Edith Stein, was a born into an observant Jewish family. However, by her mid teens, became an atheist. On January 1, 1922, Edith Stein was baptized into the Roman Catholic Church.
Edith Stein was arrested in 1942 and sent to the Auschwitz concentration camp where she died in a gas chamber.
On May 1, 1987, Stein was beatified as a martyr by Pope John Paul II and then canonized by him on October 11, 1998.
As the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel is approaching, the Prior General has written a letter to all Carmelite family expressing his best wish and inviting all members to celebrate the Feast by beginning with the Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel.
Custom of making the Novena to Our Lady of Mount Carmel before the Feast is a long tradition and much observed by many Catholics.
In his letter we are reminded of the importance of the Feast and he asks the whole Carmelite family to "celebrate the Novena and the giving of the scapular, with conviction, affection and pastoral care and attention, with a sense of liturgy and catechesis."
