Carmelite Missions

Christian Love

...is touching the face of Jesus,

and saying to hungry children around the world:

"You Will Live"

God has blessed us in the United States and Canada, we are truly grateful. We realize that many people in poorer countries of Asia, Africa and South America have not always been as fortunate. Our missionary Carmelite Family -- priests, sisters, and laity -- try to help God's poor people in 25 countries throughout the world. With your prayerful and financial support of the Carmelite Missions, our missionaries can be the compassion and caring of God, the hands and heart of Jesus, to the fragile, forgotten and forsaken.

CHALLENGES

These are some of the challenges in Carmelite missionary areas that plead for our help and concern.

• Spread the good news of God's love to people in emerging countries in concrete ways they can understand.
• Live the message of Jesus who identified with the poor, by feeding, loving, comforting and caring for Him by doing it for them, among the poor families of the Philippines.
• Stop the rise of tuberculosis as the major cause of death for children aged 7-14 in the Southern Andes of Peru.
• Restore medical clinics to help the wounded of countless families in the once wartorn villages of East Timor.
• Assist over 10,000 poor people in our Carmelite parish of the Resurrection with its 17 mission stations in Torreon, Mexico.
