Home About Us Prayer Requests Carmelite Saints ... Donate Online Mission to the Immigrants: Establishment of the Order of Discalced Carmelites in Oklahoma By: Michael M. Smith; October 1981 1927 Souvenir Booklet The revolution which ousted Diaz in 1910, however, initiated another period of unbridled violence, xenophobia, and anti-clericalism. Throughout Mexico, revolutionaries desecrated churches, killed clergymen and nuns, and destroyed monasteries and convents. Once again the Carmelites were forced to flee the country or go into hiding. Throughout the violent stage of revolution, many Carmelites in Mexico returned to Spain, fled to Cuba, or sought safety in the United States. For the first four years of the conflict, the Discalced Carmelites in Torreon, Coahuila, had escaped the violence which rent other areas of the republic, and during the week before Easter, 1914, they quietly prepared for the forthcoming Holy Week solemnities. Four Spanish priests from the Province of Aragon-Valencia staffed the mission and church. The small community included Fr. Cirilio Corbat, the superior; Fr. Luis Benages; Fr. Bernardo Broton; and Fr. Domingo Pitarch, who was in Mexico City at the time. Thus, on April 8, 1914, the three Carmelites entered the United States. They had little money and no friends in this country. They did not speak English and had no idea where they would stay. Initially, they did not intend to remain permanently in the United States; they sought only a temporary refuge until they could go on to Spain or perhaps return to Mexico. They spent their first night in El Paso in a hotel, thereby depleting their financial resources. The next day, the Jesuits who had charge of the Church of the Virgin of Guadalupe took them into their house. Hoping to find a place to stay with members of their own order, the three Carmelites decided to go to Chicago, where, they had heard, the Discalced Carmelites had established a house. The Jesuits arranged for their transportation by train, and on April 11 they departed for Chicago.

Headlines Lottery approval legalizes raffles By: Ron Jenkins - Associated Press Writer
"What are you doing, Henrietta?" the senator said he asked her. "'Well, we had a raffle and the attorney general says it's illegal and I'm trying to figure out who gave what and how to get the money back to them,"' Shurden said Scroggins, director of the center, told him.
Shurden said with voter approval of a state lottery on Nov. 2, civic clubs, churches and other groups no longer have to fear running afoul of the law for conducting raffles. Raffles are now legal for nonprofit organization thanks to legislation enacted by the Legislature in 2003 that was tied to adoption of the Oklahoma Educational Lottery Act.
"Definitely good news," said Harry Trottier, McCurtain County fire chief who also heads up a volunteer fire department in the tiny community of Texanna in eastern Oklahoma. For years, Trottier said, the fire agency raised money for equipment by raffling off everything from television sets, to microwaves, to handmade quilts.
"Those quilts made by the ladies' auxiliary brought a lot of money. One time one of them brought about $1,500," he said.
