Congregation of the Mother of Carmel

Healing ministry, the noblest field for the protection of life imbibes the spirit of the words of Jesus Christ who says “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly” (Jn10:10). Remembering the words of our Founder Father who exhorts, ‘many people have reached the heights of holiness by lovingly serving the sick,’  our sisters in healing ministry shall become witnesses to the merciful love of Christ (cf. Mt 25:36). Understanding the needs of the time we give special consideration in our service to the alcoholics, drug addicts, those who are rejected by their own dear ones and those who need palliative care.

​

We try to make our Health Care Centres as houses of consolation, merciful love and healing. We instill Gospel values in the sick to make their experiences of sickness, suffering and death redemptive and lead them to be hopeful even in the midst of sufferings. Along with the acquisition of scientific and technological knowledge for the protection and promotion of life, we are alert to remain faithful to the moral teachings of the Church.
