Over four hundred years of her canonization, St Teresa’s spiritual legacy lives on and it has been lived and expressed by her sons and daughters.

It is in this light that the Centre for Applied Carmelite Spirituality (CACS) announces a new spirituality series — THE DAUGHTERS OF ST TERESA —featuring four exceptional Carmelites – Mary Maravillas of Jesus, Mary of Jesus Crucified, Mary of the Angels and Mary of St Joseph– whose life manifest a particular legacy of St Teresa.

This series will explore their particular gift in the context of their time as well as a Teresian trait in their spiritual experience.

The life and spirituality of Mariam Baouardy – a Carmelite Saint from the Holy Land

In this talk, Pia Jolliffe will introduce Mariam Baouardy, or Sister Mariam of Jesus Crucified OCD (1846-1878), a Carmelite nun whom Pope Francis canonized on 17 May 2015 in Rome.

Based on her own experience of living in, and visiting, the Holy Land, Pia will suggest ways in which Mariam’s life and spirituality can speak to us today.
