Carmelite wisdom to encourage & inspire
Mother Clare Joseph Dickinson, one of the foundresses of the Teresian Carmel in North America, kept a journal of their journey from Holland to New York and Maryland. They set sail on 25 April 1790 from Texel, Holland bound for New York.
Approaching confession from the abyss of her misery, she casts off everything, desiring to preserve in herself only the image of God according to which she was created
The new, post-conciliar liturgical calendar for the Teresian Carmel was approved 20 October 1971 by the Holy See
I say, in the name of the Lord himself, that you should be encouraged in such a great undertaking
On St. Bartholomew's day the habit was received by some and the Blessed Sacrament was reserved
Jesus alone is beautiful; He is my only joy
I loved her very much and endured with her her labors and pains
May her prayer help us and her example inspire us
These nuns can be a burden for you, mi padre
By following his example
may we come to the eternal vision of your glory
Carmelites depend on God alone
When I left my father's house I felt that separation so keenly
I wish her to be called—Teresa of Jesus
On St. Bartholomew's day the habit was received by some and the Blessed Sacrament was reserved
They are my Fathers to whom, after our Lord, my soul owes every good it possesses
Acuérdome que cuando murió mi madre... afligida fuime a una imagen de nuestra Señora
Cuando ves a mi Madre que me tiene en los brazos
¿Qué me puedes tú dar a mí?
Aquí se hace devota de la Reina del Cielo
Jesus alone is beautiful; He is my only joy

Let nothing disturb you, Let nothing frighten you, All things are passing away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Whoever has God lacks nothing; God alone suffices. ~ St. Teresa of Avila
