New Question and Answer Series

Lay Carmelite Crest
Crest of Lay Carmelite Order of Our Lady of Mount Carmel   

This new Question-and-Answer Series was begun in the attempt to clarify questions and/or concerns that came up during the 2019 Lay Carmelite Convocation in Chicago, IL. Cindy Perazzo, the Coordinator of Lay Carmelites for the Province of the Most Pure Heart of Mary, will address one or two questions every Friday and we will post them on our website. Eventually, all will be covered. You will note that usually, she will throw in a little personal philosophy in regard to the question as well.
