My 4 Day Visit With The Carmelite Nuns Of Philly, Pa

[deusluxmea]

I love the way you write about these Carmelite communities. Full of details and interesting tit-bits without being gossipy! What a wonderful Carmelite you will make, no matter what shores you land!

[Laudem Gloriae]

deusluxmea,

Thank you for your beautiful and kind comments! I loved these Carmelites - they were all so warm and friendly and so holy. It is too bad these pictures don't show a glass case on the wall that contains relics and some things of St. (Pardre) Pio's and also in the extern part of the monastery in a small kitchen where I ate and there was food and near the kitchen turn where the sisters delivered my food to me, there is a small room off this kitchen that has a large wall crucifix with a plaque that says a crucifix of St. Pio's that he held and kissed! A nun in this monastery knew him so hence the added devotion to him.

Does anybody know the "name" of this Carmel? Usually Carmelite Monasteries are named "something." Thank you.

Now I can't find the name of the Georgetown Carmel! I'm trying to make a list for my "Carmelite" clients! Thanks in advance to anybody who knows....

Since this thread is very old, you may want to start a new one.  In the meantime, I took a look through their website as well as the Discalced Carmelite's official website and there is no mention of a convent name anywhere.

The Georgetown Carmel in California is called the Carmelite Monastery of the Holy Face and St. Therese  I'm sorry I can't help out with the Philly Carmel.

I looked up the Sheffield Carmel and one of the first things that pops up is a blog that I'm nearly positive belonged to her. It seems like she entered at Sheffield. 

Of course I got the idea to look up the Sheffield Carmel because she had written in her bio that she was going to enter there.

what is the name of her blog?
