| Behind the
enclosure door of Carmel lies a hidden world of great beauty, goodness and truth. Here, sheltered from much distraction, noise and stress, God is found and loved. |

A Life of Prayer | ||||
| The sisters' chief
occupation is contemplative prayer. Each day they attend Mass and recite the Divine Office (the Prayer of the Church) composed of hymns, prayers, scripture readings and the Psalms - the ancient songs of Israel. Carmelites also spend two hours in silent prayer every day. |
To support this
life of prayer, the sisters engage in many different types of work. Art work, illuminations and greeting cards are designed and printed for sale. Garden produce of all kinds is grown for the sisters' own needs. Housework and sewing alternate with their hours of prayer and reflective reading. |

| Carmelites
keep the needs of all in their prayers and in their hearts. Would you like to join us in prayer?
