The Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel was started by our Italian ancestors thanking God through the intercession of the Blessed Mother for their safe passage to the USA and the bounty of their crops. The 151st Anniversary of the Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Festival continued our tradition in an extraordinary fashion!
