Carmelite

The Carmelite Order, officially known as the Order of the Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel, is a mendicant order in the Catholic Church for both men and women. The order's origins are uncertain but likely date back to the 12th century on Mount Carmel in what is now Israel, possibly founded by Berthold of Calabria and Albert of Vercelli. The order is characterized by its spirituality centered on the Old Testament prophet Elijah, with Mary becoming the queen and mistress of Carmel. The Carmelites began their life as hermits, living in caves on Mount Carmel, before developing into a monastic order with a written rule of life, which was formalized in 1209 by the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, Albert of Vercelli.learn more on wikipedia
