“God hears most readily the cry of the soul that loves him.” There are many ways to serve God. Some preach from ornate cathedrals. Others conduct worldwide ministries, travel with entourages and ride in limousines. Some preach in glass palaces to affluent congregations and broadcast their services to millions. Others give homilies in modest churches and tend to the needs of their local parishes. Then there are those who serve silently—without fanfare or recognition—denying self and material things. There are humble, gentle women who spend their lives praying for those they do not even know. Countless people have been blessed by the prayers of reclusive strangers far away, and do not even know it. They are selfless, serene souls who ask nothing for themselves and pray only for the good of others. Of all God’s servants, few are more selfless and deserving of our praise than the Carmelite sisters. They are truly special. The world needs to know that there are such women.
