There are a number of 'Societies of Prayer' at the National Shrine of Saint Jude at Faversham through which supporters of the Carmelites can have their prayer intentions remembered by the friars. These include:

 

• The Society of the Infant Jesus
• The Society of the Little Flower
• The Society of Saint Jude
• The Holy Souls Society (Altar List of the Dead)

Society of the the Little Flower
Before the Second World War, the Prior of the Carmelite friars at Faversham, Fr. Elias Lynch, O.Carm., established three 'Societies of Prayer', including The Society of The Little Flower in honour of Saint Thérèse of Lisieux.

These Societies continue to exist and are a very popular way for people to express their faith, participate in our Carmelite devotions, and support our ministry of service to God's people.

Members of the Society are enrolled for a year, during which time a Mass is celebrated every month for their spiritual and temporal welfare. Members each receive a novena prayer card and prayer leaflets. 

It is possible to enrol yourself and others in either or all Societies, and whilst there is no set fee, a donation of £1.50 per person per society is suggested. 

This money supports the Carmelite brothers and our work to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ in Britain and beyond. 

You might like to consider enrolling yourself, family or friends in one or both of the Societies of Prayer at Faversham.

You can join any of these societies by clicking on an image below, or please send a list of names and addresses, along with your donation (by cheque made payable to Carmelite Friars) to:
