A change of date for the memorial of St. Nuno Alvarez Pereira, from the 1st of April to the 6th of November.
The Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments recently approved the changing of the date of the memorial of St. Nuno Alvarez Pereira from the 1st of April to the 6th of November. This change to the liturgical calendar of the Order is to take effect immediately. Now that he has been canonised, this change provides the possibility of celebrating the memorial of St. Nuno. The fact that the previous date coincided normally with Lent or with the Octave of Easter often meant that it was not celebrated. Now everyone is in line with the date already followed in Portugal. Unfortunately, the Congregation did not grant the raising of the memorial to a feast for the whole Order.
During the Provincial Chapter of the Province of India held on 13-15 February 2014 were elected:
- Prior Provincial: Fr. Robert Thomas Puthussery, O.Carm.
- First Councilor: Fr. Jose Alex Valavanattu, O.Carm.
- Second Councilor: Fr. Thankachan Njaliath, O.Carm.
- Third Councilor: Fr. Boby Sebastian Tharakunnel, O.Carm.
- Fourth Councilor: Fr. Regi Jacob Pullan, O.Carm.
Course in English Language for friars at Aylesford: 1st July – 16th August 2014
As publicised at the General Chapter 2013, there will be a basic course in English language at Aylesford, England. At the end of the experience, participants will have the fundamental tools and confidence to begin developing communication skills in English.
This opportunity is open to all friars of the Order who will live and pray with the Carmelite Community at the Order’s iconic priory, which is intimately linked with the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the Order’s first General Chapter.
The cost of the course and accommodation will be covered by the British Province on a donation only basis. To be successful the programme requires 5-8 participants. Participants will be expected to have some knowledge of English already and will be responsible for the cost of their travel to and personal expenses during the programme.
