Madame Acarie received many mystic gifts and graces from God, but she was greatly tested with trials and much suffering, also. She grew to have an unshakable trust in Divine Providence and always looked to God for all of her needs. Discalced Carmelites celebrate her feast day on 18 April.

Barbe Avrillot was born in Paris in 1566. At the age of sixteen, she married Pierre Acarie, by whom she had seven children. In spite of her household duties and many hardships, she attained the heights of the mystical life. Under the influence of St. Teresa’s writings, and after mystical contact with the Saint herself, she spared no effort in introducing the Discalced Carmelite nuns into France. After her husband’s death, she asked to be admitted among them as a lay sister, taking the name of Mary of the Incarnation; she was professed at the Carmel of Amiens in 1615. She was esteemed by some of the greatest men of her time, including St. Francis de Sales; and she was distinguished by her spirit of prayer and her zeal for the propagation of the Catholic faith. She died at Pontoise on April 18th, 1618. In the year 2021, the Memorial of Blessed Mary of the Incarnation gives way to the 3rd Sunday in Easter.

"The reading of sacred scripture is a great and powerful remedy..."

"Jesus therefore, when he knew that they would come to take him by force and make him king, fled again into the mountain himself alone" (Jn 6:15). To flee from power so as not to be above anyone, in order to serve and do good, to flee from power so as not to corrupt the heart.

"Just like Jesus, she must stand by the victims at all times, who are the least and the forgotten members of society, by defending their lives and their rights and by promoting their dignity, in the name of God."
