She was born in Santiago de Chile on July 13, 1900.<\/p>\n
At the baptismal font she was called Juana Enriqueta Josefina of the Sacred Hearts Fernandez Solar. In the family she was called, and still is today by the name of Juanita. She lived a normal childhood within her family: her parents, Michele Fern\u00e1ndez and Lucia Solar; three brothers and two sisters; maternal grandfather, uncles, aunts and cousins. The family enjoyed a good economic position and authentically preserved the Christian faith, living it with sincerity and perseverance.<\/p>\n
Juana received her education in the college of the Sisters of the Sacred Heart. Her brief but intense history developed around college and family life. At the age of 14, inspired by God, she decided to consecrate herself to Him as a religious, and precisely, as a Discalced Carmelite.<\/p>\n
Her wish came true on May 7, 1919, when she entered the small monastery of the Holy Spirit, in Los Andes, about 90 km away from Santiago. On October 14 of the same year she took the habit of a Carmelite, beginning her novitiate with the name of Teresa of Jesus. She had known for a long time that she would die young: the Lord had revealed it to her. She herself told her confessor a month before she died.<\/p>\n
She welcomed this reality with joy, serenity and confidence, certain that in eternity she would continue her mission: to make God known and loved.<\/p>\n
After much interior suffering and unspeakable physical pain, caused by a violent attack of typhus that ended her life, she passed from this world to the Father, on the evening of April 12, 1920. She had received the sacraments with great fervour and on April 7th<\/sup>, she made her religious profession “in articulo mortis”. She still had 3 months to go to turn 20 years and 6 months, finishing her canonical novitiate and being able to make her religious profession. She died as a Discalced Carmelite novice.<\/p>\n The beatification ceremony was held on April 3, 1987. The solemn ceremony of canonization on March 21, 1993.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" She was born in Santiago de Chile on July 13, 1900.
