Vocation | Introduction

A Carmelite Vocation
– still haven't found what you are looking for ?

The call to follow Christ is lived in many ways. There are many "charisms" in the Church, ways in which the Holy Spirit has called men and women to live out the Gospel message. Many people are being called today to respond to God's generous love through the religious life.

Carmelites take vows of poverty, chastity and obedience to help them grow in their freedom to serve God and their neighbour. It isn't an easy way of life but thousands of men and women still discover in Carmel a way of freedom and peace, a life of intimate joy with Christ.
