Maybe this is old news to some but a bright spot at least amongst all the other disasters going on in the Church.

Acquaintance used to be with them, I think.  The Elysburg Carmelites, now, apparently, the Fairfield!

Do you happen to know the name of the Priest who will be associated with them, advising them, saying Mass, etc.
A long time ago, I heard a rumor, but I did not read anything about it, so just wondering...Thanks for the link, Drummerboy  :)

Perhaps Fr. Maximilian Mary, (formerly FFI)?

Unsure. Wife is thinking they are an offshoot of the Carmelites in Nebraska who are ministered to by the FSSP.

Thanks, Gardener  :)
The rumor I heard was that an FSSP Priest would be going to a Carmelite group, but I cannot remember where to.... So, maybe your wife is onto something  :)

If anyone has the ability to donate to Fr. Maximilian please do so. I knew him 20 years ago and he was one of the kindest and delightful people this side of Heaven. He met me in Massachusetts with no sandals on in February and asked to carry my bags to my room as a penance. He's a humble, kind soul. He was a brother then and no grey in his beard. I'm delighted to see him saying the the TLM for the nuns. Thank you for this Gardener.

As a quick point of reference it's a retired monsignor who helps the nuns in Nebraska and occasionally the FSSP comes and visits.
