Mission Statement

Following in the footsteps of Jesus,
we, the Sisters of Mount Carmel,
are nourished by contemplative prayer,
community,
and our devotion to Mary,
a woman of simplicity and faith.

Our prophetic call as Carmelites
moves us to be in active ministries
that help bring about a more peaceful,
just and loving world.


(Mission Statement revised December 2000)


Vision Statement

In a world redeemed
by Jesus Christ,
yet divided by injustices,
we will respond
through our Carmelite charism,
our human, financial and
institutional resources
in collaboration with
the people of God.

(Vision Statement revised December 2000)
