    My family grew up knowing the Carmelite nuns in San Diego. My mom went to one of the nuns for spiritual counsel for 50 years and we would all go to Masses and novenas at the monastery. As my mom always said , “the nuns pray when we are too tired “

    When the sister laughed about confession done every week, I smiled. As a Catholic once a month is fine, yet for me, a new Catholic as of Easter 2021, I go once a week myself, and if I miss one, I'm on the phone to make an appointment when I can. It's a beautiful sacramental I wish the whole world could do. It is amazing the gift God gave to us in it. I cry, sob at times after confession watching people rush about, thinking they need this or that.. and all they need is Christ. Thank you sisters for your prayers and all you do to capture and save as many souls as possible. It is beautiful.

    There is just a beauty and truth to the Catholic faith I pray you come to know. It saved me in so many ways when I faced the end of my life. I am still here by His miracle and grace. The sacraments of receiving Him in the Eucharist and feeling His intense love is something that cannot be explained. The fact that He allows you to choose Him and to not be forced is just a love that is so selfless and true. When you read about how He died for us on a cross you will see the true selfless love and sacrifice God has for His children…I pray you come home my dear! Blessings to you!

    Mary, my dear. It is no impediment to become one of the third branch of the Carmelite family. I did my formation in the Secular Order of Discalced Carmelites. It is a long story as to why I then received a vocation to become a nun in a new way. Defending the Faith through cyberspace. Anyway, this message is not about me. The commitment to the Secular Order should not in any way serve as an impediment to family life. It was a commitment on one Sunday a month as a community day where we learn, pray and meet together with our sisters. In addition, one weekend retreat once a year. We were held to only two of the seven daily prayer times: Lauds and Vespers with Compline as optional. You would, I'm sure, be welcome to go to a community day. No one would ever pressure you. It is a call, like any other. In many ways, those of us without secular careers and marriages have it much easier. To carry the Carmelite charism into the secular world can be challenging. Anyway, I thought I would let you know about this. God bless you. I hold you in my prayers. I would be grateful for yours.

    I spent 4 years in Catholic boarding schools in Malta and have very fond memories of some of the nuns I knew there as well as of the chapel life we boarders could participate in if we wished to do so. I'm Eastern Orthodox and while we don't have different religious orders as in Roman Catholicism, monastic life is greatly valued in Orthodox Catholicism (yes, we also call our churches catholic, i.e. universal). For both men and women, monastic life tends to be very similar to the way of the Carmelites: a life devoted to work and prayer, with more emphasis on the latter, naturally. And again, similar to the role deep silence plays in Carmelite prayer, in Orthodox monasticism silence and the practice of the silent Prayer of the Heart are key elements in one's spiritual development and approach to God.

    Orthodox Catholicism? ...And there is no such thing as Roman Catholicism, rather there is the Catholic Church and within that there are various Rites- the Roman or Latin Rite, and 23 Eastern Rites.

    I had a vocation when I was a young woman in college late teens and early 20's. Many are called but few are chosen. I got married at 30years old and now divorced after 30years having 2daughters and now a grandmother of 2. I still yearn for spirituality. We can serve God in all state of life. It is not easy to turn your back in the World. Total denial of our senses. Emotional, our fleshly desires, etc...

    This is lovely to see beautiful women dedicating their lives to God. Thank you for this video. I am a strong spiritual person and my life has changed for the highest good because of my own dedication and connection to God. I am not a Catholic but I respect anyone that chooses to serve God and others in whatever they feel called to do so. It’s really all about understanding unconditional infinite love and we can’t know that unless we know God.

    clairstberry 0 seconds ago Let’s tell the truth. The denial of God that the previous three or four entries assert is the polar opposite of what the nuns pray for. Jesus Christ the son of God will return to this earth. They pray for His return. satan seduces and lies to many people and pretends that there is no God and appeals to their pride that they can live life any way they desire. The nuns that you claim to admire realize that satan is a liar and that those who do not believe in God have been seduced by satan’s lies. You have also been wrapped in pride. I know what that feels like. But God, who is rich in mercy sent Jesus Christ, the innocent one, God in the flesh, to die for us so that all of us who believe in Jesus will have eternal life. And we pray that you will believe because you will not get to Heaven without believing. Without believing in Jesus Christ you will be damned eternally in everlasting flames meant for the devil and his demons. But the one who is damned has chosen, chosen to deny Christ. Don’t do that . If you still resist Jesus, please don’t flatter yourself that you are like these women who have chosen God and believe in him. Forsake your sins. Choose Jesus. Amen

    I enjoyed seeing a little bit of behind the curtain of these Sister's. I grew up with the Carmelites Sisters cloister nearby. My Mother would always say, "I'll call the Nuns to pray." I'm confident the sister's prayed me into my solid and lifelong relationship with Jesus. The Sister's have since relocated to a new location and their old convent was purchased by a lovely church. But it will never be the same. Those halls are hollow ground.
