Some Famous People called Maria Kasper
Maria Katharina Kasper
Maria Katharina Kasper (26 May 1820 – 2 February 1898) – born Katharina but in religion known as Maria – was a German Roman Catholic religious sister and the founder of the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ. Kasper entered the religious life later in her life despite having harbored a desire to become a religious sister for a very long time. It did not materialize earlier due to aggravating circumstances such as the Kaspers' poor economic status and the deaths of both a brother and her father. Her dedication to the poor and the ill was noted during the course of her life and she dedicated herself to this work with great zeal.
Her canonization process launched in the 1940s and on 4 October 1974 she was named as Venerable; Pope Paul VI beatified her not long after on 16 April 1978. Pope Francis confirmed her canonization which was celebrated on 14 October 2018.
