Institute of Our Lady of Life, Institute of consecrated life in Venasque, France
The Institute of Our Lady of Life stands in Venasque, consisting of three autonomous branches dedicated to spiritual formation and religious education.
Marie-Eugène de l'Enfant-Jésus established the institute in 1932, receiving additional recognition from Catholic authorities in 1950 as a secular institute.
Members of the institute follow Carmelite spirituality while maintaining their professional activities, combining contemplative prayer with daily work responsibilities.
The institute offers extensive retreat facilities and training sessions for spiritual development, with separate programs for clergy and lay members throughout the year.
The sacerdotal branch, founded in 1964, enables diocesan priests to integrate their ministry with structured spiritual formation through specialized solitude houses.
