Teresa Jornet Ibars

Her beatification was celebrated by Pope Pius XII on 27 April 1958 in Saint Peter's Basilica.

[3] In her childhood, she demonstrated a strong concern for the plight of the poor in her area, and she often took them to the home of her maternal aunt Rosa so that proper aid could be provided to them.

[1] As she felt called to the monastic life, Ibars applied for admission to the Poor Clares near Burgos in 1868.

[1] On 11 October 1872, she and her sister, Maria, moved to Barbastro with their friend Mercedes Calzada i Senan,[3] and opened the first house.

Ibars tended to the victims before she retired to the order's house at Liria, where she remained for the next few months.

Theologians collated all of Ibar's writings and approved them as being in line with official doctrine in a decree issued on 16 March 1947.

[5] On 22 January 1957, Pope Pius XII named her Venerable upon the confirmation that Ibars led a life of heroic virtue.
