2020NOLMCWeb160 On the 9 days before the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (16 July), the Carmelites invite you to join with them in prayer. Every year we pray for the needs of our Carmelite Family in Australia and Timor-Leste. This year, in the midst of COVID-19, we are including the people of the world in our novena of prayer. Please join with us each day from Tuesday 7 July to Wednesday 15 July when one of our young Carmelites will lead us in prayer. You can join them on Facebook or on this page anytime during the day. You can also pdf download the prayer and intentions. (4.51 MB) Watch Br Albino's invitation to join the Novena.

Go to our Novena of Prayer page for each day's Prayer.

Carmelite Rule

A rule of life was given to the early Carmelites by St Albert Avogadro, Patriach of Jerusalem between the years 1206 - 1214. It was finally approved by Pope Innocent in 1247 and later underwent mitigations which were not in the original text.

The Carmelite Rule states that is basic for a Carmelite to "live a life of allegiance to Jesus Christ - how, pure in heart and stout in conscience, he must be unswerving in the service of his Master" [no.2].

Safeguarding

The Carmelites of Australia and Timor-Leste are committed to the protection of children, young people and vulnerable adults from all forms of abuse and mistreatment.

We are committed to safeguarding all people in our care, particularly children, young people and vulnerable adults.
