The Carmel of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph

The Carmel of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph in Valparaiso, Nebraska is celebrating the first anniversary of its dedication this month. So far as I know, this is America's newest Carmel. There is a website here. Do take a look at some of the latest photographs showing the completed monastery here and the ceiling mosaics here. The sanctuary appears to be appointed to facilitate an "ad orientem" liturgy. I have heard that the liturgy will be "traditional". But what that means in practice I don't know. Bishop Bruskewitz is a friend to the traditional Gregorian rite so it may mean just that.
