Wakarmeli

Wakarmeli (kwa Kilatini Ordo Fratrum Beatissimæ Virginis Mariæ de Monte Carmelo, kwa Kiingereza Order of the Brothers of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Mount Carmel, kifupi O.Carm.) ni watawa wa Kanisa Katoliki ambao labda ulianzishwa katika karne ya 12 kwenye mlima Karmeli (Israeli) ukizingatia juhudi za nabii Elia zilizojumlishwa katika maneno yake yanayotumika kama kaulimbiu ya shirika: "Zelo zelatus sum pro Domino Deo exercituum" (yaani "Nimefanya bidii sana kwa Bwana Mungu wa majeshi"). Pia kuna uhusiano wa pekee na Bikira Maria.

Mbali ya wanaume, wapo wanawake wamonaki wanaojifungia katika ugo wa monasteri, na masista wenye utume wa aina mbalimbali. Hatimaye wapo walei wanaofuata karama ya shirika ambayo ni hasa kuzama katika sala.

Walio wengi wanafuata urekebisho wa Wakarmeli Peku (kwa Kilatini "Ordo Carmelitarum Discalceatorum", kwa kifupi "O.C.D."), ulioanzishwa na Teresa wa Yesu katika karne ya 16 huko Hispania.
