THE
CARMELITE COMMUNITY LIFE
Living in community is guided by the words of St. Teresa: "All must be friends"
There are two short periods of recreation each day.
Conversation, gardening, reading, music, handcrafts, such as knitting, crochet and painting are among the many pastimes that are used when the sisters get together to relax.
On special days of celebration, a play or concert may be put on, or a video watched. Television is not normally watched and the sisters keep up to date by reading the papers and talking to friends and relatives.
