After a Postulancy of six months, the woman enters the novitiate. The novitiate is of the utmost importance since it consitutes the first steps and foundation of the religious life. It is during this time that the novice discovers the basic values of the consecrated life in Carmel, and begins to build on them by following the directives of the Church and the Order. The formation program will help them experience these basic values. as they try to live them faithfully instead of knowing them only theoretically, they will begin to keep their eyes fixed on our saints, who are masters in this art.At the end of the canonical year and with the consent of the formation community, the novice makes her temporary profession. The Novice should have given proof of her suitability, of possessing a well-balanced personality, adapted to community life. She should have demonstrated a promptness in giving herself in a radical way to the Lord and to her sisters in community.By Solemn Profession a religious is definitively incorporated into the Order and becomes a full member of it. For that reason no one should be admitted to it without proven human and spiritual maturity.If you feel a call to the contemplative life, please contact us. We can discover together if Mt. Carmel is calling you to it's heights.Fax: Mother Juanita Marie, Mistress of Novices 214-623-1885
