The British Region of Discalced Carmelites have communities in London, Oxford and Bucks. The Discalced Carmelite Family is a religious order in the Roman Catholic Church. We trace our roots back to the ancient hermits on Mount Carmel in the 13th century. Like them, we try to follow Christ with special emphasis on Scripture and prayer. We take Mary as our model. This way of life was reinterpreted for us in the 16th century by St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross. That is why we are sometimes today referred to as "Teresian Carmelites". We live in small communities, nurtured by the Word of God, dedicated to prayer and apostolic service. We are called to union with God through friendship with Christ and each other. Please contact us to learn more about our life. We look forward to hearing from you.
