Augustine Ichiro Okumara
Description:
Sr. Maravillas was born at Madrid in 1891. She entered the El Escorial Carmel, Madrid
on October 12, 1919. In 1924 she was inspired to found a Carmel at Cerro de Los Angeles,
alongside the monument to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. From this foundation followed nine
others in Spain and one in India. She always gave first place to prayer and self-sacrifice.
She had a true, passionate zeal for the glory of God and the salvation of souls. Even while
living a life of poverty in the cloister she helped those who were in need, initiating apostolic, social, and charitable works. In a particular way she helped those of her own order,
priests, and other religious congregations. She was canonised on May 4, 2003 in Madrid.
