I write something I read yesterday of the road on Sunday that deal in mass. This article is from July Zambrano on the history of the apparition of Mary in the title of Caramel in Mount Caramel.
The Carmelites have spread among the Christian people devotion to the Blessed Our Lady of Mount Caramel, as a model of prayer, contemplation and dedication to God. The Virgin Mary is the model fully hosted insurmountable Word and lives forever, in body and soul with the Lord. His devotion is based on the reading of 1 Kings 18.44, which have been interpreted as a symbol of Mary Immaculate.
The Virgin appeared to St. Simon Stock on July 16, 1251 and gives the scapular to the Carmelite Order with the following pledge: "This must be a sign and a privilege for you and all Carmelites; who die using the scapular shall not suffer eternal fire. " Who uses the scapular is committed to live the Christian life by following the example of the Virgin Mary. The scapular along with the rosary and the Miraculous Medal is one of the most important Marian sacramentals.
Virgen del Carmen, pray for us.
