On February 1, the Carmelite Order celebrates Blessed Candelaria of St. Joseph. The day is celebrated as an optional memorial in Latin America.
Blessed Candelaria was born Susana Paz-Castillo Ramírez in 1863. She enthusiastically welcomed the call of God to holiness, and since her youth, stood out in practicing living and effective charity, with which she cared for, consoled and healed the sick and wounded that strife had left on the streets of her birth city.
