Carmelite Conversations show

Summary: This particular program picks up on the series of Devotion to the Holy Face.  Mark and Frances trace the history of this devotion within the Church, and then outline some of the key events which led to its reinstitution on a number of occasions.  They also provide specific details on the lives of Sr. Mary of St. Peter, the Carmelite nun of Tours who received revelations from the Lord on this devotion, and also, Leo Dupont, who actively practiced the devotion for years, after Sr. Mary's death, and long before it received official Papal recognition.
