Our Lady of Mount Carmel Stationery

The feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel was initiated by the Carmelites in the late 14th century. This feast recalls the special event that occurred on July 16th, 1251, when the Blessed Virgin Mary gave the scapular to St. Simon Stock, with the promise that “Whosoever dies wearing this Scapular shall not suffer eternal fire.” The earliest form of the scapular was the Carmelites’ brown habit. Today, millions of people around the world now wear the small brown scapular. Some of the saints who faithfully wore the brown scapular during their lifetimes include St. Alphonsus Liguori, St. Peter Claver, St. John Bosco, and Pope St. John Paul II.
