On the holy day of the Pentecost, when the Apostles, inspired from above, spoke in tongues and performed many miracles by invoking the most august name of Jesus. It is said that numerous men who had been prepared for Christ's coming by the predication of John the Baptist, had seen and recognized the truth. These disciples of the holy prophets Eli and Elijah embraced the faith of the Gospel at once. Significantly, the Blessed Virgin, with whom they had the chance to converse and get to know, became for them during these fortunate hours the object of such a special love and such deep veneration, that they were the first a chapel for this most pure Virgin. This chapel was erected on Mount Carmel, where Eli once saw a cloud rise in the image of the Virgin.

Flos Carmeli, vitis florigera,
splendor caeli, Virgo puerpera singularis.
Mater mitis, sed viri nescia,
Carmelitis esto propitia,
stella maris.
