Welcome!

I have created this blog for sedevacantists interested in becoming Third Order Carmelites.  I am a mother, writer and resource specialist.  I have a devotion to St. Therese of Lisieux, Patroness of Missions who was a discalced Carmelity.

I do not know if I myself will become a Third Order Carmelity; and if I do it will probably be many years from now as my children are still young and I have many responsibilities.

But, I have seen a need for Third Order Carmelites.  I have over the years met many traditional Catholics interested in joining a Third Order of Carmelites.  Fr. Vincent Bowes, Carmelite in Boston though has not had the resources to start such a wide scale endeavor.

Since this autumns, myself, Ines Wagner and Kamil Bajdak (Founder of Miserentissimus http://miserentissimus.ning.com) have been discussing with the Carmelite Abbot in Mexico about the need for starting a Third Order for the Carmelites.

The Abbots name is Father Fray Juan at the Carmelite Monastery in Guadalajara, Mexico under Bishop Mark Anthony Pivarunas.

I have started this blog to be a resource on Carmelite Spirituality for possible interested Third Order Members and as a place of contact for those interested in the Third Order Carmelites.

I do not know if and when the Father Abbot in Mexico will start a Third Order but I do understand that part of the decision  will involve how much of an interest is generated by lay people.

So, that is the major reason I have founded this blog:  to gather those lay people interested in a Third Order of Carmelites and to generate interest.

I have a copy of WAY OF PERFECTION FOR THE LAITY by Rev. Father Kevin which contains the rules and duties of Third Order Carmelites which I plan to put online for those interested in becoming Third Order Carmelites.  This book of course is geared to the reform of St. Teresa of Avila of the discalced Carmelites.

On the website where I am Co-Administrator called Miserentissimus, Suzanne Kennedy is putting online another Carmelite book about the Third Order called Caremel's Call, a Manual for Tertiaries of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel.

I invite any one who is interested in Carmelite spirituality or the Third Order to please join Miserentissimus where under our Notes section we are placing several resources about Carmelite Spirituality.  Miserentissimus is specially devoted to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and several Carmelites had this special devotion.

Note added May 5, 2009
I have just discovered that John Lane has already scanned in onto the internet a copy of
Way of Perfection for The Laity

I still plan to reprint this book; but in the meantime, those who may be interested in the Third Order of Carmelites or Carmelite Spirituality may read it at the link above.

INTRODUCTION LETTER


December 19, 2008
Welcome!


I have created this blog for sedevacantists interested in becoming THIRD ORDER CARMELITES.  I am a mother, writer and resource specialist.  I have a devotion to St. Therese of Lisieux, Patroness of Missions who was a discalced Carmelite.

I do not know if I, myself will become a Third Order Carmelite; and if I do it will probably be many years from now as my children are still young and I have many responsibilities.

But, I have seen a need for Third Order Carmelites.  I have over the years met many traditional Catholics interested in joining a Third Order of Carmelites.  Fr. Vincent Bowes, Carmelite in Boston though has not had the resources to start such an endeavor.

Since this autumn, myself, Ines Wagner and Kamil Bajdak (Founder of Miserentissimus http://miserentissimus.ning.com) have been discussing with the Carmelite Abbot in Mexico the need for starting a Third Order for the Carmelites.

The Abbots name is Father Fray Juan at OBRA MARIANA CARMELITANA the Carmelite Monastery in Guadalajara, Mexico under Bishop Mark Pivarunas.

I have started this blog to be a resource on Carmelite Spirituality  for possible interested Third Order Members and as a place of contact for those interested in the Third Order Carmelites.

I do not know if and when Father Fray Juan will start a Third Order but I do understand that part of his decision making will involve how much of an interest is generated by lay people.
