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, the members, trace our roots back to the ancient hermits on Mount Carmel, Israel, in the 13th century. Like them, we try to follow Christ with special emphasis on Scripture and prayer. In this we take Mary as our model. This way of life was reinterpreted for us in the 16th century by St Teresa of Avila with the help of 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; to a life of prayer and service to the Church and world. Member of Compass.
