Monastery Open House
Oct 18-19, 2008 | Episcopal Carmel of Saint Teresa
Sr. Teresa Irene OCD and the Oblates and Associates of Episcopal Carmel of Saint Teresa welcome friends and members of the public to an open house in celebration of the 5th anniversary of the Profession of Vows by the first Carmelite Nun in the Episcopal Church or Anglican Communion.
The monastery including the Chapel and enclosed gardens will be open from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM each day and tours will be available.
We hope that you will find time to stop by, meet some of the members of our Carmelite family and see our renovated Monastery and Guest House.
You might want to time your visit to be here to worship with us. Dress is always casual and you would be very welcome.
