Discerning a Vocation

                                                               

   
Through a life of prayer, mission, and community, the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm seek to render loving service to the elderly in the spirit of the foundress, Mother M. Angeline Teresa. The Carmelite spirit encompasses genuine compassion for the aged, seeking to provide the highest quality care in a home-like, loving atmosphere. Founded in 1929, the Carmelite Sisters currently staff twenty-three nursing homes in nine states and Ireland, with approximately two hundred sisters striving to share joyfully and generously the Gospel message and bring Christ's love and healing to the aged and infirm entrusted to their care. Admission requirements: Young women generally between the ages of 19 and 35 in good physical and mental health who have a high school diploma or its equivalent, plus a sincere desire to serve Christ through a ministry to the elderly.
