María Antonia Bandrés Elósegui (6 March 1898 – 27 April 1919) was a Spanish Roman Catholic professed religious from the Daughters of Jesus.

[1] Her doctor, Filiberto Villalobos, testified that he was moved as he cared for the nun due to her ardent spirit and her commitment to the faith.

This concluded the following year after her writings were checked by theologians who certified their orthodoxy, on 10 July 1970, leading to the formal introduction of her cause on 11 May 1982, which entitled her to the title Servant of God.

The Congregation for the Causes of Saints validated these two previous processes in Rome on 27 January 1983 and received the official Positio dossier in 1989 for further evaluation.

She became titled as Venerable on 6 April 1995 after Pope John Paul II confirmed the fact that she had lived a life of heroic virtue.
