Louise-Marie of France, OCD (15 July 1737 – 23 December 1787) was a French princess and Discalced Carmelite, the youngest of the ten children of King Louis XV and Queen Maria Leszczyńska.[1] She entered the Carmelite convent at Saint-Denis in 1770 and took the religious name Thérèse of Saint Augustine. She served as prioress in 1773-1779 and 1785–1787.
Her cause for canonization was opened in 1902 and she was declared venerable by Pope John Paul II in 1997.
