Australian Lay Carmelite Moderator, Chris Wade, gave the second keynote address at the Carmelite Family Congress in Rome. Chris beautifully told of her journey to Carmel and of the role significant woman played in her life, from her grandmother to the other women Chris met later on in life. To live the Carmelite Way, Christine said, involved certain principles: one had to recognise the importance of the Incarnation and to become 'a spark of life' the importance of listening and of receiving other people as they are without trying to change them and lastly, that we be people of joyful service. Her talk was very well received and many expressed gratitude for inspiring them to reflect on their own journey.
