On June 19, 2024, six of our Carmeite Sisters and Father Mario Esposito, O.Carm. Vice-Postulator for the Cause of Venerable Mary Angeline Teresa, traveled to Mossend, Scotland to attend an unveiling of the Venerable's statue. The event was hosted by the Holy Family Parish in Mossend, North Lanarkshire, Scotland, the home parish of Venerable Mary Angeline Teresa. Although the statue did not make it in time for the grand unveiling because of custom proceedings, the occasion to connect with the wonderful people of Mossend, celebrate Mass at Holy Family parish, visit the house where Venerable Mother Angeline lived, and to walk in the footsteps of their Foundress, was a great grace and gift to the Congregation. We thank two of the organizers, John and Brian Mallon, and Paul McSherry for all the photos featured on this page, and the great hospitality shown to our Sisters and Father Mario during their visit. There might just be another opportunity in the future to visit Mossend again and to see that much awaited statue!  Below is a text featured on the Holy Family Parish Facebook page:

"A glorious day in Holy Family Mossend- Honouring our former Venerable Parishioner - Mother Angeline. We were joined by Sisters from the Carmelites for the Aged and Infirm (The order founded by Mother Angeline) and pilgrims from Brockagh in Ireland - The town of Mothers birth and childhood. After Mass, which was celebrated by Bishop Toal, we gathered in the parish gardens to bless and dedicate our new shrine to the Venerable Mother. Our statue may be waiting in customs, however the statue image was unveiled and a memorial plaque in her honour. Grateful thanks to all who helped to make this possible!Pictures with thanks to Paul McSherry!"
