The Congregation of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel
My dear Friend:
We are working in a beautiful work of providence: To establish a Traditional Catholic Carmelite monastery that is NOT subject to the changes of Vatican II
The Traditional Catholic Mass
Unchanged Doctrine
Valid Sacraments
Penance and Mortification
The rigors of the Carmelite Rule.
But we Need your Support and Donations!
We want to provide a place for contemplative souls, who wish to sacrifice and do penance for sinners, for the sanctification of Priests, for more Religious vocations… For the Conversion of America!
But Buying a Property that is modest, poor, yet suitable for a Contemplative Carmelite Monastery is Necessary for a Good Beginning.
We are foundraising to get the funds necessary to buy this property.
And you can donate now, and get a tax exemption for your donation!
We are still hundreds of thousands of dollars short
Please consider sending a check with your tax exempt donation to:
Congregation of the BVM of Mount Carmel
4101 Lamar St.
Wheat Ridge, CO 80033
Please add a note if you would like to receive a receipt for your tax exemption.

The end of our institute is to further the Glory of God by having its members achieve the most intimate union with our Lord Jesus Christ, that they may fulfill the first and main commandment “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.”
Our religious are called to achieve this end, first by having an endearingly filial love to God as our Father, as our Lord Jesus Christ instructs us in the Gospel “Our Father who art in heaven” And secondly, by a heartfelt love to the Blessed Virgin Mary as to our Mother, as our Lord expressly commanded “he saith to the disciple: Behold thy mother.” For this reason, and heeding those words from Scripture “forget not the groanings of thy mother” The houses of our institute shall be founded in the devotion and reparation to the Maternal and Immaculate Heart of Mary, seeking fervently to satisfy her request: “You at least try to console Me”
Our secondary end is the conversion and sanctification of all souls, according to the commandment given by our Savior “And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.”, praying particularly for religious and priestly vocations, and for the sinners in greatest need, foremost those who persecute or attack the Church. “Pray much and make sacrifices for sinners, for many souls go to hell because there is no one to make sacrifices for them.”
Let each sister be convinced that her vocation is of the utmost importance for the salvation of souls and the exaltation of Holy Mother Church, and that a most important fight takes place indeed within the walls of the monastery: “For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.” In such way that with that firm conviction they understand that the secondary end cannot be attained without the first one: “for without me you can do nothing”. And just as the tool cannot function unless it is united to the master artist, in the same way, we can do nothing unless we are first united to God in our interior life. For this reason, we must be intimately persuaded that if souls are lost, it is not so much due to lack of exterior action, but rather due to lack of interior works, that is: prayer and penance.
