Dear families and parishioners of Little Flower, today I share the sad and painful news of the impending departure of the Discalced Carmelite Friars from Little Flower Parish of Oklahoma City.

As the days, months, and years go by, the pain oppresses us less, and the absence becomes more tolerable, however, our dead always need our prayers. Together in prayer with the Word of God, as one family, let us hope for the redemption of the deceased and ourselves.
