The Secular Carmel has a long history in Cuba. The communities of the cities of Havana and Matanzas continue to enrich their respective dioceses with their lives of prayer and service. We had the opportunity to meet Mar\u00eda Marta of the Virgen of Carmel. In the photo, we see her showing her certificate of profession, made in Havana on July 15, 1955. She has been a secular for almost 70 years and continues her life of prayer and service with great generosity and joy.<\/p>\n

In the city of Santa Clara there is a Confraternity of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, which meets in the parish of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, served by Salesian Priests. All feel they are members of the Carmelite Order and promote devotion to the Virgin Mary through their various apostolates. Rejoicing in their vocation, they promote vocations so that others too can experience the joy of feeling part of the Order of Our Lady. We ask Our Lady of Mount Carmel to protect all her sons and daughters.<\/p>\n
