Mercè Prat i Prat

[2][3] Pope John Paul II beatified her on 29 April 1990 in Saint Peter's Square.

[4] She attended Mass on a frequent basis as a child and excelled in painting as well as needlework.

[3][5] Prat travelled to Tortosa in 1904 and entered the Teresian Sisters while commencing her novitiate on 27 August.

The Congregation for the Causes of Saints validated the process in Rome on 21 June 1985 and assumed charge of the Positio in 1987 for further investigation.

Her beatification received the approval of Pope John Paul II on 21 December 1989 after he determined that Prat had indeed died "in odium fidei" ('through hatred of the faith' by her killers) and beatified Prat in Saint Peter's Square on 29 April 1990.

John Paul II presides over Prat's beatification.
