The hermit lives a life hidden within the heart of the Mystical Body of Christ, His Church. While it is not appropriate for hermits to be engaged in the more visible works of the active apostolate, we serve the Church in a way which is no less apostolic in its fruitfulness.
The Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee has given his approval and blessing to the Carmelite Hermits of the Trinity, who pray and sacrifice in a particular way for the Archdiocese as well as for the whole Church and the entire world. The Father General of the Discalced Carmelite Order granted approval of our Carmelite title and spiritual affiliation with the Carmelite family.
The hermit lives a life hidden within the heart of the Mystical Body of Christ, His Church. While it is not appropriate for hermits to be engaged in the more visible works of the active apostolate, we serve the Church in a way which is no less apostolic in its fruitfulness. Moreover, because of the vital importance to souls of spiritual guidance and the widespread need for such counsel and encouragement, our daily work period is frequently spent in this charitable labor.
