Carmichael, who lived between 1867 and 1951, served the Lord in India for 55 years working with the poor.
She also founded an orphanage in Dohnavur, taking young women into her care.
Christian DUP MP, Gregory Campbell, wants Parliament to recognise the dedication of Carmichael's service.
Speaking to Premier, he said: "She dedicated her life to helping others and sharing the gospel and I think the other enduring quality of her contribution is that 100 years after she started quite a small charitable missionary endeavour, it is still functioning and actively helping people today.
"I think that marks her out as a very, very significant Christian missionary and someone who hasn't fully been recognised in the passage of time."
Campbell said he would like to see "a means of recognition...just to indicate the enduring memory of someone like Amy Carmichael and the fact that she came from Northern Ireland, went to India and her enduring legacy continues."
