Springtime in Carmel


On the Third Sunday of Ordinary Time, designated by Pope Francis as "Word of God Sunday," our community enthroned the Word of God in our refectory with a simple, yet beautiful ceremony.

We had a beautiful winter season with camellias, Japanese Magnolias, and even apple blossoms!


In March we had our annual Community Retreat with Fr. Anthony Ciorra on the topic of "Transitions."
