These religious belong to the Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart in Alhambra, a city east of Los Angeles. It’s the motherhouse of this congregation, which was founded in the 20th century.
The Thanksgiving cheer only got better when a family responded to the sisters with their own rendition.
What an invitation to, indeed, bless the Lord!
