Feast of St Elias

"If the Lord is God, serve Him"

The Prophet St Elias is Father of the Carmelite Order.  On Mount Carmel, the People of Israel were shown the power of Almighty God as St Elias called down fire from heaven demonstrating the falsity of the idol worshippers.

The strong influences of the pagan and demonic forces at work in our own time try to pull us away from the path of the Gospel so each day a decision has to be made: "If the Lord is God, serve Him"
