The Carmelite Sisters invite you to participate in our upcoming vocation weekend retreat on November 13-15, 2026 at our Motherhouse in Germantown, New York. You will have the opportunity to meet the Sisters, know more about the religious life, talk to our vocation director who will guide you in your discernment and enjoy silence and solitude.
