Let nothing disturb you;
nothing frighten you.
All things are passing.
God is unchanging.
Patience obtains all things.
Nothing is wanting to the one who possesses God.
God alone suffices.

- St. Teresa of Avila

We are a community of Discalced Carmelite Nuns. The essence of Carmelite life is a call to deep friendship with Christ, serving the Church through a life of prayer and self-giving. As women of prayer we seek God in silence and solitude as well as in the joys and sorrows of everyday life. Our desire for God leads us along the path of personal transformation whereby we hope to advance the healing and transformation of our world. As we pray for the needs of all people and respond to God’s call to live Carmelite life in new settings and circumstances, we look to the future with hope, faith, and trust in God’s ever-present love.
