Let's begin the novena...!

We Catholics (I'm baptized at the solemn mass of the Easter 1999), make a preparation well before celebrating a specific holy day, with a "novena" -- a series of nine-day prayers on the same intention.

I owe to a Carmelite saint, Edith Stein, for my christian name "Theresia Benedicta of the Cross" (the name by the baptism; on the confirmation, I've been given another christian name "Raphaella"), so I'm planning to prepare well for the day of July the 16th, the memorial day for "Our Lady of Mount Carmel". Today is the best day for kicking off the novena!
