Mission of the Carmelite Sisters for the
Aged and Infirm
These dedicated women commit their lives to the fulfillment
of their Mission:
"We, the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm,
as women of the church inspired by Mother M. Angeline Teresa, respond
with faith, courage and love to the healing ministry of Christ.
Our philosophy is steeped in her words:
‘Our apostolate is not only to staff and operate
up-to-date homes for the aged, but as religious it is to bring Christ
to every old person under our care. Bringing Christ means giving
them His compassion, His interest, His loving care, His warmth morning,
noon and night. It means inspiring the lay people who work with
us, to give the same type of loving care.’
"Our mission is reflected in the philosophy of
care inherent in all policies and practices promulgated within the
health care facilities under our supervision, thereby charging the
administration, boards of directors and medical staff with promoting
the Christian mission of healing and care."
