Elizabeth of the Trinity, born Elisabeth Catez, was a French Discalced Carmelite, mystic and spiritual writer who lived from 1880 to 1906. She was known for the depth of her spiritual growth as a Carmelite as well as for periods in which those around her perceived her religious calling to be unsure, though she was acknowledged for her persistence in pursuing the will of God and devoting herself to the Carmelite charism. A gifted pianist, she wrote in a letter of her happiness as a professed religious, and central to her spirituality were three names she felt she had received from God: House of God, Praise of Glory and Host of Praise. Pope John Paul II celebrated her beatification in Paris in 1984, and Pope Francis canonized her as a saint in 2016.
