Our Lady of Mount Carmel —Patroness of the People of the Sea, the Carmelites, and the Scapular— is honored on July 16. This novena, prayed from July 7 to 15, recalls Mary's maternal protection, her promise of the Scapular, and her constant intercession.

The Novena to Saint Therese of the Child Jesus —the "Little Flower" of Lisieux (1873-1897), Doctor of the Church and universal patroness of missions— introduces the faithful to the path of spiritual childhood: becoming small before God, surrendering with absolute trust, and offering ordinary acts with extraordinary love. Her promise to "spend heaven doing good on earth" and to shower a "rain of roses" has inspired countless graces. Over nine days, the virtues of Therese are meditated upon, her intercession is implored, and the grace to love Jesus with simplicity and missionary zeal is requested.
