Madrid (19-01-2010).-  On 10th January, there was a meeting in the Plaza de España monastery in Madrid for “Those working in youth ministry in the Teresian Carmel” in Spain and Portugal.

The meeting, convoked by Fr Miguel Márquez, Provincial of Castile and President of the Iberian Conference of Provincials, was attended by around twenty Discalced Carmelite religious and laity from the majority of the Provinces of the Iberian peninsula. Also attending were members of the Carmelite family: Missionary Carmelites, Teresian Missionary Carmelites, Teresian Carmelites of St Joseph, Carmelites of St Joseph, Carmelite Slaves of the Holy Family, as well as members of the Institute Notre Dame de Vie.

Those taking part reflected on the need to collaborate together in youth ministry and for the organization of a joint meeting for the World Youth Day which will be in Madrid in 2011, taking into account the proposal of the Preparatory Commission for the V centenary of the birth of Saint Teresa, supported also by the European Provincials.

Very positive acceptance was also given to the idea of holding a meeting of the youth at the level of the whole peninsula, in October 2010, as well as the creation of a commission to speed up the work of the Carmelite Web for those working in Youth Ministry.
