On October 3, 2026, the Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm hosted their annual Rosary Rally on the beautiful grounds of Saint Teresa’s Motherhouse in Germantown, New York.

The gathering honored Our Lady of the Rosary with a special time of prayer before Mass, including the praying of the Family Consecration prayer of Pope Saint John Paul II. The event brought together members of the public, Carmelite Sisters and their Postulants, Pre-Novices, and Novices of the Saint Elias Province from Middletown, New York, along with families and friends.

We were especially grateful for the presence of Brother Robert Chiulli, O.Carm., Provincial of the Carmelite Friars of the Saint Elias Province; Rev. Jonathan Steele, O.Carm.; and Rev. Jim Hess, who served as celebrant and homilist for the Vigil Mass.

It was a beautiful day of prayer, fellowship, and devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary. We thank everyone who joined us and helped make this annual celebration a grace-filled occasion.
