Description

In the 19th century, following the extinction of religious orders in Portugal, women religious were forced to abandon Carmelo and were welcomed by family and friends. Later, many of them entered several Carmelite convents in Spain. In 1933, when in Portugal religious freedom was already enjoyed, three of the nuns of this community who had moved to Spain, decided to return and, with the support of three other Spanish Sisters, restored the community and the Carmel of Coimbra. Years later and after many diligences, the Carmelites managed to recover the keys to the convent from which they had been expelled, the latter being the only Carmel that the government restored to the Order. Thus, Carmel of Coimbra was continued as a retreat home for a community of Carmelites who live a life of silent surrender for the Church and for humanity.

Among the many sisters who lived in Carmelo de Santa Teresa, Sister Lúcia stands out, a fortune teller from Fátima, who lived in the shelter of this convent from 1948 to 2005 (the year she died), having professed in 1949. After the death of Sister Lúcia , Carmelo de Santa Teresa created the Irmã Lúcia Memorial, where it is possible to appreciate a replica of her cell, as well as some of her personal objects, photographs, her handiwork and other elements that help to understand her life path.

  • Dear sisters,
    Jesus God of peace and tendernness
    Wearing Thy cross of suffering for Love
    In Your large eyes is Paradise and wounded Love...
    My ideas of Unity and Reconciliation are from the crown of thorns of Christ and from the Immaculate Heart of Our Lady...with Her I am very much alike and Her pair soul...I am the Angel of Our Lady that Blessed Irma said that the Church will not hear..
    Penitence! Pentince! Penitence!! expiations and substitutions that are benephical to complete the Majestic expiatory sufferings of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and of the Sacred Heart of Jesus for the Redemption of Humankind!!
    The regime of Romania and the American state one communist and the other Masonical are against me and my ideas...they want to oppose Unity and Reconciliation...Russia and Raluka are victims as I have ideas including economical that are not masonical and that will bring prosperity and peace...and the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart in Russia the conversion of KGB and the Tsar again, the Triumph of Christianity and Holy Brotherhood !
    My natural paternal grandfather was the son of the Romanov family and he loved my grandmother that was a simple person...shje was not so beautiful but she was wonderful as a person..the most wonderful, industrious and noble hearted and kind person on earth!!
    In Alapayevsk there were persons that came from the dead and they sent messages that I am the Resurrection of Holy Russia!
    Russia and Raluka are victims and they will be maryrs ..the holy martyrs...
    Thank you and pray for Russia and Raluka,
    Raluka Gabriela Antonescu
