We believe that individuals need community to fully experience the life Christ calls us to. We want Mount Carmel to be a transformational, loving environment where people are welcomed as they are and helped to become what they can be. Some of that community occurs in structured small groups and on retreats together. But much of it happens in the course of living life together, sharing meals, serving, laughing, and loving together. Staff work to model and set the tone of openness to the life of Jesus - we are committed to coming alongside students in their personal journeys. Students are encouraged to discover and nurture their gifts through active participation in our community.
