Ways to support our life of prayer

The most important way to help our Carmel is to PRAY for our growth in holiness, and for new vocations to our community; and also to join us in praying for priests and the hierarchy, that they may be holy and courageous apostles for Christ.

People often ask if we have special projects that need funding.  Our most urgent need today is providing for the influx of new members who have recently joined us.
For more information, please see our special page about supporting new vocations.
By the grace of God, our numbers have nearly quadrupled since we restored our liturgical traditions, but unfortunately our income has not kept pace with this growth. What would help us most is a small army of monthly donors, each giving even a small amount, to help us meet the ongoing costs of Christian healthcare sharing and other basic needs for the nuns.

We are grateful for all of our friends, families, and benefactors who support us in our mission of prayer and intercession for the Church and the people of the world. Without your kind support, we would be unable to continue our lives of prayer. We remember in our daily prayers and sacrifices all those who do good to us, as our Holy Mother Saint Teresa of Jesus taught us.  May God reward you abundantly for your faithful generosity!
