Give Hope to those in need

As Carmelites our purpose is to provide spiritual and pastoral care not only to those who come to our Churches but to everyone who needs our support. We believe we can help people from all walks of life reach their full potential through community, prayer, and action.

Your gift will help us continue to be by the side of people in need. It will help us continue to give companionship and care to those who are vulnerable, traumatised or feeling isolated and alone. It will help us guide and mentor disadvantaged youth so they get back on their feet and become productive members of our society once again. And it can provide comfort to people in their final hours by visiting them in their homes, hospitals or hospices.

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
