Elisabetta Canori Mora (21 November 1774 – 5 February 1825) was an Italian member of the Third Order of the Most Holy Trinity.[1][2] Mora married an abrasive husband who remained unfaithful and abusive to her but at the time of her death secured his repentance, and he became a priest.[3] Mora had a range of spiritual experiences in which she heard the voice of God and visions of the Madonna and other saints while also experiencing religious ecstasies during her life.[4][5]

Her beatification cause opened in 1874 under Pope Pius IX and in 1928 was named Venerable under Pope Pius XI. The beatification for Mora was celebrated in Saint Peter's Square under Pope John Paul II in 1994.[6][7]
