On the 15th of September, following the reading of the final message, which will be published in citoc-online in the next few days in the three official languages of the Order) the 2011 General Congregation, held at Mount Carmel Spiritual Center (Niagara Falls, Canada) came to a close. At the end of the closing Mass, the Prior General, Fr. Fernando Millán Romeral, O.Carm. accompanied by the General Council, blessed a new chapel dedicated to Blessed Titus Brandsma in the Church of the spiritual center. The chapel which was designed by two Carmelites, Stanley Makacinas and John Benedict Weber, and built by a local artist, Nicholas Napolitano, illustrates various aspects of the life of Blessed Titus. The Provincials, Commissaries and General Delegates who were attending the Congregation took part in the dedication ceremony. As is well known, Fr. Titus visited this house in 1935 where he gave a number of conferences on Carmelite spirituality. In addition he wrote a very beautiful reflection based on the famous waterfalls that are only a short distance away.
