Chiquitunga Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 Also these stained glass windows were recently put in, [url="http://americanglassguild.com/forum5/1628.html"]http://americanglass...orum5/1628.html[/url] It's Our Lady giving the scapular to St. Simon Stock and St. Teresa Margaret of the Sacred Heart [url="http://stteresamargaret.org/"]http://stteresamargaret.org/[/url] and Our Lord .. definiely her because of the Florence Duomo outside the window. Their Mother Foundress is Mother Teresa Margaret who is still alive (101 now I believe) whom I posted about above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totally Franciscan Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 These windows are amazing. I love that they are floor to ceiling; they really draw one into them. The chapel is so beautiful! Thanks for posting this Chiquitunga, our resident expert on all things Carmel! God bless! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiquitunga Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Praised be Jesus Christ! ¡¡¡Feliz Navidad!!! I was just remembering ... the new chapel was supposed to be finished and dedicated today, so maybe we'll be seeing some new pictures soon. But for now there were a few new ones added here, http://www.stroik.com/portfolio/monastery-of-the-infant-jesus-of-prague/ And here are some from early this year .. http://www.flickr.com/photos/60124357@N06/sets/72157628803471577/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for now there were a few new ones added here, http://www.stroik.com/portfolio/monastery-of-the-infant-jesus-of-prague/ three more pictures have been added.. :detective: my guess is that it hasn't been completed yet/dedicated, but since it's still Christmas for a few more days .. and traditionally until February 2nd :like: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiquitunga Posted February 4, 2013 Author Share Posted February 4, 2013 posting things as I find 'em :smile3: from a few weeks ago, http://kankakeelatinmass.altaredesign.com/2013/01/09/beautiful-traditional-fair-linen-for-altar/ & today (or yesterday) http://www.upnorthlive.com/news/story.aspx?list=196421&id=855909#.UQ9jYR1JPoa (the statues & I believe crucifix seen here are only standing in for now, until the new ones come) This afternoon was the dedication Mass with Bishop Hebda.

VeniJesuAmorMi Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Beautiful! What a difference than what it was before. The Sisters must be so pleased, and its very fitting for a Carmelite Chapel. I'm thinking that the picture that is on the Altar is the same one that they have on the Altar for the Poor Care Sisters in Alabama (Mother Angelica's community.) All for Jesus! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inperpetuity Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Thanks for posting this news. 83 years as a Carmelite, incredible. May she rest in peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graciandelamadrededios Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 May her soul rest in peace. Mother Margaret Mary was formed by Mother Mary Ilias herself. Traverse City Carmel has few members and I pray that they get good vocations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
