Fr. Hermann Cohen

1821-1871

Hermann Cohen was raised Jewish and a music prodigy who studied under Franz Liszt. He became famous at a young age, indulging in sin and vice. A chance encounter with Catholic benediction moved his soul so radically that he began attending daily Mass, adoration, conversion and eventually became a Discalced Carmelite priest. He was a popular preacher, restored nocturnal benediction and re-established the Carmelite order in France and England. Many people came to him for his miraculous intercession even though he preferred quiet contemplation. Throughout his life he was gifted with mystical visions yet continued writing music for the Church. He died of smallpox.

Two of the disciples of Jesus were on their way to a village called Emmaus, seven miles from Jerusalem, and they were talking together about all that had happened. Now as they talked this over, Jesus himself came up and walked by their side; but something prevented them from recognising him. He said to them, ‘What matters are you discussing as you walk along?’ They stopped short, their faces downcast.

Then one of them, called Cleopas, answered him, ‘You must be the only person staying in Jerusalem who does not know the things that have been happening there these last few days.’ ‘What things?’ he asked. ‘All about Jesus of Nazareth’ they answered ‘who proved he was a great prophet by the things he said and did in the sight of God and of the whole people; and how our chief priests and our leaders handed him over to be sentenced to death, and had him crucified. Our own hope had been that he would be the one to set Israel free. And this is not all: two whole days have gone by since it all happened; and some women from our group have astounded us: they went to the tomb in the early morning, and when they did not find the body, they came back to tell us they had seen a vision of angels who declared he was alive. Some of our friends went to the tomb and found everything exactly as the women had reported, but of him they saw nothing.’

Then he said to them, ‘You foolish men! So slow to believe the full message of the prophets! Was it not ordained that the Christ should suffer and so enter into his glory?’ Then, starting with Moses and going through all the prophets, he explained to them the passages throughout the scriptures that were about himself.

When they drew near to the village to which they were going, he made as if to go on; but they pressed him to stay with them. ‘It is nearly evening’ they said ‘and the day is almost over.’ So he went in to stay with them. Now while he was with them at table, he took the bread and said the blessing; then he broke it and handed it to them. And their eyes were opened and they recognised him; but he had vanished from their sight. Then they said to each other, ‘Did not our hearts burn within us as he talked to us on the road and explained the scriptures to us?’

They set out that instant and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven assembled together with their companions, who said to them, ‘Yes, it is true. The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.’ Then they told their story of what had happened on the road and how they had recognised him at the breaking of bread.

[Luke 24:13-35]

I go to Adoration at a chapel in the Carmelite convent by my house, and the smell in there is the best smell in the entire world. I'm trying to figure out if it would be weird to email the sisters and ask what specific incense they use so my house could smell like that too?

Santa Teresia Benedicta a Cruce (Edith Stein)

Born and raised Jewish, Edith Stein converted to Catholicism following a period of spiritual dryness. She became a Discalced Carmelite nun, and she adopted the name Teresia Benedicta a Cruce. She was later killed in the gas chambers of Auschwitz for her Jewish heritage.

Iconography: yellow badge; flower crown given to newly cloistered Discalced Carmelite; her book Kreuzeswissenschaft: Studie über Johannes vom Kreuz (The Science of the Cross: A Study of Saint John of the Cross). I also used the image of the scratched gas chamber walls as the background.

…unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

~ John 12:24-26

How gentle and loving is Your awakening, O Bridegroom Word, in the center and depth of my soul… Awaken and enlighten me, my Lord, so I might know and love the blessings You ever propose to me, and I might understand that You have moved to bestow favors on me and have remembered me.

Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity

1880 -1906

Feast Day: November 8

Patronage: sick people, loss of parents

Elizabeth of the Trinity, born Élisabeth Catez was a French Carmelite nun and religious writer. Elizabeth entered the Dijon Carmel on August 2, 1901. She said, "I find Him everywhere while doing the wash as well as while praying." Her time in the Carmel had some high times as well as some very low times. Today, we know about all that she felt and experienced in her writings. Elizabeth died at the age of 26 from Addison's disease, which in the early 20th century had no treatment.

Memorial of The Holy Guardian Angels

"God our Father, in your loving providence you send your holy angels to watch over us. Hear our prayers, defend us always by their protection and let us share your life with them for ever. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen."

The Lord says this: ‘I myself will send an angel before you to guard you as you go and to bring you to the place that I have prepared. Give him reverence and listen to all that he says. Offer him no defiance; he would not pardon such a fault, for my name is in him. If you listen carefully to his voice and do all that I say, I shall be enemy to your enemies, foe to your foes. My angel will go before you.’

[Exodus 23:20-23]

Bless the LORD, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his bidding, obedient to his spoken word.

[Psalm 103:20]
