About Us
If God has led you to explore this page, you may have been called by the Holy Spirit to become deeper in Love with Jesus and His mission to Love our neighbor as ourselves.
At Ark of The Covenant Lay Carmelites, core values are rooted in spiritual growth and community. Inspired by Isaiah 56:7, we strive to create a welcoming house of prayer for all peoples. We aim to bring all to His Holy Mountain, fostering joy and ensuring sacrifices are acceptable on His altar. We are located in Sanford and Limerick, Maine.
