Our Lady of Mt. Carmel July 16+Elias name sake day is July 20th+First Atomic Bomb Test July 16th

Our Lady of Mount Carmel is the title given to the Blessed Virgin Mary in her role as patroness of the Carmelite Order. The first Carmelites were Christian hermits living on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land during the late 12th and early to mid 13th century. They built in the midst of their hermitages a chapel which they dedicated to the Blessed Virgin, whom they conceived of in chivalric terms as the “Lady of the place.” Our Lady of Mount Carmel is the patron saint of Chile.

The Three Fatima conferences before the end of the year.

Once again, In adhering to our Lady’s request of prayer and penance,  the current trend that unless “all of Our Lady’s requests are implemented,” all is in vain in obtaining restoration in the Church and in the world. But that’s the problem. It has been in vain because Our Lady’s requests have been rejected by the Church and the world in general. Adding to the confusion was Pope John XXIII refusal to disclose the Fatima secret in 1960, then two years later we had the opening of the (gates of Hell) Vatican II Council,
in Apocalypse 9.
Now that Father Gruner and John Vennari is gone the Fatima Crusaders have a shift in leadership. Christopher Ferrara opted to join up with the SSPX Conference for Catholic Tradition!  Where he will debate Kevin Symonds on, ” Is the Third Secret Entirely Revealed?

Turkish government seizes Syriac Orthodox properties

The government of Turkey has seized more than 50 properties from the Syriac Orthodox Church in the country’s Mardin province.

The government’s religion ministry said that ownership permits had lapsed for the properties in question—including churches, monasteries, and cemeteries. Many of the properties are no longer in regular use, although Syriac officials report that the cemeteries, for instance, are still used on occasion for memorial services.

One of the properties, the Mor Gabriel monastery, has considerable historic value. The 1600-year old monastery is one of the world’s oldest.

An appeal by Syriac officials has been denied. SOURCE
