New Mount Carmel Foundation

Little formal or organized support exists for the monastic orders, so this Foundation was organized in 2008 to undertake a twofold mission in service of an identified need: to receive donations from well-intentioned faithful toward the purchase of a remote mountainous property and to subsequently develop it so that it might become the home of the Monks of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel. In 2010 this Foundation purchased a parcel of land nestled in the mountains near Meeteetse, Wyoming. After the initial infrastructure was finished, construction of the monastery buildings began in 2014. In 2019 the monks moved into the completed portion of the monastery. Construction is in progress to finish the remaining sections of the monastery.
