We invite you to join us on the path up Mount Carmel. Walking in the footsteps of Jesus with Elijah and Mary is a wonderful, deeply satisfying life. The call to Carmel is unique, a magnificent marriage of contemplation and action. As we strive for union with Christ we draw others closer to Him. In this life, we draw ever closer to one another in Christ. In this section, you can find answers to common questions about our way of life. You can also explore the application process and the various stages of formation, meet several Carmelites, and join in a discussion about the call to religious life with the Carmelites.
