Leopold Bocaro OCD with primarily the spiritual nourishment and upliftment of women and children in mind. Carmelgiri had its beginning in this highrange district of Kerala under its mother province, Kothamangalam until it became an independent Province in the year 2003 along with the erection of the Diocese of Idukki. With the unbreakable zeal of Prophet Elija, its patron, the members of the Province strive for the spread of divine love through various missions including Education, Medical Ministry, Social Work, Family Apostolate, etc. By blending with the hard and tough life of the highrange people, the sisters work relentlessly to support the spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical needs of the people. The province also extends its services beyond its borders in Latin America, Germany, and Kodaikanal.
