cathoholic_anonymous Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 There are quite a few of us in Europe - me, VA, and PP are the regulars, but there are some others who don't post much or who have already found their home - who are glad to see European monasteries and convents being publicised. PM isn't just an American resource. Perhaps more European discerners will spend time on the phorum if they see more attention being paid to the communities over here.

Theresita Nerita Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 The Reposoir looks beautiful! I doubt there are any hopeful Carmelites out there who haven't seen the following amazing videos on youtube, but if you haven't, check them out! My favorite is this one - so natural, so full of happiness! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQNk5F-peg0[/media] It's a four-parter so it will eat up your afternoon.

EJames, Do you know which Carmels in France are the 7 more traditional ones, not associated with a federation (besides the one in Ars)? Also, I saw in the Brothers/monks photo thread that you posted several pics of the Communaute St. Jean. Do you know them well? I just finished a year of studying philosophy with them in France...and loved it! I miss them! Thanks for all the helpful information! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
