Juana María Condesa Lluch (30 March 1862 – 16 January 1916) was a Spanish religious sister who established the Handmaids of Mary Immaculate in her hometown of Valencia.

[1] Lluch dedicated her life to the promotion of the rights of workers ever since her childhood when she first witnessed the terrible conditions of laborers.

Her initiatives in Spain were aimed towards the workers and their families as a means of alleviating their burdens and championing their fundamental rights as individuals.

[1] She felt called to the religious life at the age of eighteen and saw the need to aid the workers who worked in de-humanizing conditions.

The required miracle – the prerequisite for beatification – was investigated in the diocese of its origin and received full validation from Roman officials on 12 November 1999.
