The cycle of the liturgical year has brought us into the season of Ordinary Time, perhaps to teach us that we can't buy time, save time, waste time, lose time, or do anything else with time other than passionately embrace the hidden mystery of every ordinary God-given moment.

is an association of Monasteries of Discalced Carmelite Nuns. The
Carmelite Order is part of the Roman Catholic Church.
Carmel is as old as the twelfth century hermits who inhabited the
caves of ancient Palestine and as new as the longing for "more" that stirs in your heart today. It's mission is to be a prophetic
presence in the world that awakens and supports the realization of
the life of God in all people and in all creation. It's way is contemplative
prayer.
We are Discalced Carmelite women and members of the Carmelite Communities
Associated, one of the American groups within the world-wide family
of Carmelite women and men.
