Would love to hear the opinions of the members on this forum regarding this Carmel convent. Feel free to let me know what you think and definitely mention other traditional Carmels- that would be most fruitful. Which traditional convent that sticks to the Rule would be the best choice? (asking for someone I know).

What do you think makes a good candidate to the Carmelite Order? From good families (both parents), and what of candidates from broken families (lack of paternal role)? Vocations have decreased big time since Vatican II, as we all know. Since the day and age we live in is dangerous for the youth, vocations will be lost (as Our Lady of Buen Suceso prophesied). Thanks

The Carmelites in Spokane were founded originally by Archbishop Lefebvre's blood sister, Mother Marie Christiane (she died in 1997). It was originally located in Pennsylvania, but later moved to Spokane. I hope to attend Mass there in there in the future, though it is several hours' drive away. You may have already seen this information on the convent:

It seems strange to me, why SSPX nuns would be attached to FSSP or endorsed by Vigano.  Why are they not their own SSPX.

Why would Lefebvre attach FSSP nuns to Vigano’s sister?

I'm totally confused.  How did Vigano's sister get involved?  Was Lefebvre's sister part of the SSPX?
