Hi, guys —
Upon reading St .Theresa of the Little Way in our weekly study group, we came across
the reference to the Carmel.
- Does this refer to the convent, the order,
or something else?
In our research, we have been unable to find
an answer.
Thanks for your help.

Hi, Rosanne —
It's common to refer to a particular
Carmelite convent as the Carmel.

Carmel refers to:
- the Order
- a house of the Order
- the way of life
- the spiritual life, and
- the [Garden|Mountain] of Carmel
in the Holy Land from which the
Order takes its name.
