Blessed Candelaria of St. Joseph, virgin Blessed Candelaria was born Susanna Paz-Castillo Ramírez, in Altagracia de Orituco, Venezuela, on August 11, 1863. Her life was spent among the poor; she was distinguished by a profound humility, an unfailing charity towards them, and a profound faith life, prayer and love for the Church. In addition to her careful attention to the sick, she was concerned about the education of children, a task she left as a legacy to the Carmelite sisters. She founded a new religious congregation, dedicated to serving the poor, which was definitively established in 1910 with the name "Congregation of the Sisters of the Poor of Altagracia de Orituco." Afterward, the congregation was affiliated to the Carmelite Order, and was called the Third Order of Regular Carmelites. Today they are known as the Venezuelan Carmelite Sisters or Carmelites of Mother Candelaria. The beatification of Mother Candelaria of St. Joseph took place on April 27, 2008, in Caracas, Venezuela.
