vee Posted June 23, 2016 Posted June 23, 2016 I wonder what my family's reaction to a grille like that would be?! That plus a great veil plus them having no knowledge of those things existing would make quite the scene. The Carmel Im going to just has a grille which my family doesnt know about so seeing that, if they ever visit, will be interesting.
graciandelamadrededios Posted June 23, 2016 Author Posted June 23, 2016 Hi Vee! Well, you can probably show them the photo of spiked grille and nuns with faces fully covered with enclosure and ask them what they think about these scenarios?

Quasar Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Fascinating stuff! I notice some of you are referencing constitutions... How did you gain access to orders' constitutions? I would love to read these. Are they publicly available?
graciandelamadrededios Posted July 12, 2016 Author Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) they are private documents but I got them due to my research work. there are documents available at the lisieux carmel archives website regarding customary, rule and constitutions, etc. Edited July 12, 2016 by graciandelamadrededios

Indeed, it was bent down! Is this one of the Carmels founded by St. Teresa herself?
