An 8 week program to gather mothers together to form a network of mutual spiritual support to provide an experience of learning and praying together to increase self-acceptance, communication skills, and the use of prayer rituals in the home.

The Center is open to people of all faiths who desire a serene meeting place for faith-focused gatherings and retreats, as well as the opportunity for groups to guide their own programs.

Just 40 miles from New Orleans, on the Northshore, the Carmelite Spirituality Center offers a tranquil setting for individuals to leave behind everyday worries to "come aside and rest a while."  Year-round flowers and star-filled night skies provide a serene setting for reflection, solitude, celebration and leisure helping to create a sense of community among those who visit.
