Mother Rita Barcelo y Pages (20 April 1843 - 14 May 1904) was the Spanish foundress of the Augustinian Sisters of Our Lady of Consolation. She was the sister of Joaquina Maria Mercedes Barcelo Pages, who was the cofounder of the community. A beatification process has been opened.[1][2]

Beatfication process

After Mother Consuelo was given the title of a Venerable in December 2012, the Congregation for the Causes of Saints announced already a close opening for the process of Mother Rita. Her cause for beatification was proposed by the Augustinians and of the Congregation of the Augustinian Sisters. She is regarded a Servant of God.
