The name of Barbe Acarie - Mrs Acarie - objectively occupies a prominent place in the History of the Discalced (according to the Teresa of Avila’s rules) Carmel in France…

Mrs Acarie

Barbe AVRILLOT, wife of Pierre ACARIE, born in Paris on February 1, 1566 and died in Pontoise, on April 18, 1618.

A woman in the world, married, 6 children, who heroically faced great trials , she is “the main initiator of Carmel in France”. Widow, she herself is called by God to become a converse sister : Sister Marie of the Incarnation, today Blessed.

In this woman of very good sense, the love of God is translated into the completed fulfillment of state duty. Joining to numerous natural gifts, an intense interior life, she knew how to simultaneously accomplish her duties towards God and the neighbor.

Madame Acarie is a model for us, men and women of today, whatever our state of life.

Madame Acarie is particularly prayed for for future births, and for the reception and protection of life in all circumstances.
