A Carmelite Life is Prayer
Scripture calls us to pray always, to seek God in all that we do. The Carmelite life is based on living this Divine request. The Mass is the highlight of each day; Our Lord's abiding Presence draws every other activity into a continual sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving.
