Institute of Our Lady of Carmel (INSC)

6 Dona Lucia St., Doña Carmen Subd.,
Barangay Commonwealth, Quezon City

Two Canadian INSC sisters first arrived on this day in 1999, settling in a house in Tandang Sora, Quezon City. In 2000, they transferred to their current home in Doña Carmen in Brgy. Commonwealth, Quezon City.

The next year, they established the Fiore del Carmelo School which offers pre-school to senior high school education. The aim of the school is to create lasting change in society through the academic and moral education of children.

The sisters also have a community in Mandaue City in the island of Cebu.

Let us pray for our dear sisters that their mission in the Philippines would remain strong and productive.

May our dear Mother and Sister, Our Lady of Mount Carmel, continue to cover them with her love and protection.

May our Father, through the love and guidance of our Lord Jesus Christ in unity with the Holy Spirit, shower them with more spiritual blessings.
