Featured Article: A New Dawn For Haiti - Catastrophe struck the nation of Haiti on January 12, 2010. Scientifically classified as an earthquake, the residents, global aid workers, and others interpreted it as the end of the world. Already without too many resources, proper living conditions, the citizen's despair was overwhelming. News reports of men, women, and children dashing through the streets, scattering in groups among collapsed buildings and dilapidated homes and businesses became rampant. As the remainder of the world looked on in fright, it was difficult to understand a fraction of the terror those in Haiti were feeling.

Vocation Information

Comment on Spirituality Articles in the forum

This Divine Companionship tends to accomplish what any close friendship does. Little by little the person takes on the mind and heart of our dear friend, Jesus. Soon God's great love and care for all people and for all creation is mirrored in the mind and heart of the person who is faithful to this life of prayer.

Prayer and life are of a piece. From our quiet presence in our neighborhood, we hope to be witnesses to the value of every human person.

If you experience a call to a life of a prayer in community, to a life that points beyond itself to the mystery and love of God, you are invited to contact Sr. Judy Murray, OCD, at: info@baltimorecarmel.org
