For the sisters of the Carmelite Monastery of Our Lady and Saint Therese, the call to Carmel is an invitation to a life-long journey of transforming union in Christ. We choose to enter Carmel through a life of prayer for the needs of the Church and the world. Ours is a life dedicated to prayer and contemplation, set within the cloistered walls of the monastery.

Our life is made possible through the donations of those generous and kind. We invite you to share with us your prayer requests and your novena intentions.

May God bless you richly.
