Discalced Carmelite Friars
California-Arizona Province of Saint Joseph

We seek to respond to Christ's call by combining the contemplative spirit with the active apostolate.  As Carmelite brothers and priests, we serve the Church in various ministries.  We staff four parishes, a retreat house, a house of prayer, an Institute of Spirituality, and a mission in Uganda, Africa.  We are also involved in spiritual direction, hospital chaplaincy, prison ministry, and spiritual assistance to Carmelite Nuns and Carmelite Seculars.
