| Abstract: | Il-Knisja tal-Madonna tal-Karmnu tax-Xlendi nbniet fuq art Ii kienet tappartjeni lill-patrijiet Karmelitani Maltin. Kienet ilha tiħliass il-ħtieġa għall-bini ta' din il-knisja, peress li l-popolazzjoni kienet żmien tiżdied. Fl-imgħoddi, tista' tgħid Ii l-knisja kienet sultana tal-inħawi, wieqfa waħidha qrib ftit remissi ċkejknin quddiem ix-xtajta, imma llum, ix-Xlendi nbena kollu kemm hu. Ġewwa l-knisja nsibu l-kwadru titulari li juri lil Madonna tagħti l-labtu lil San Xmun. Din kienet tpittret mill-artist malti Salvatore Micallef fl- 1869. Hemm ukoll l-istatwa tal-Madonna tal-Karmnu li saret fl-1965 u nġiebet minn Milan. Għalkemm ċkejkna, il-knisja tax-Xlendi għandha valur storiku u artistiku, u taqdi rwol importanti għal-ħtiġijiet spiritwali tal-komunità ta' din il-bajja. |
