Teresa Jornet Ibars (†1897), also known as Saint Teresa of Jesus, was a Spanish Catholic professed religious and the founder of the Little Sisters of the Abandoned Elderly. Her dedication to the old and ill was noted, and her sisters' work in Spain and later abroad. Her beatification was celebrated under Pope Pius XII on 27 April 1958 in Saint Peter's Basilica while Pope Paul VI later canonized her as a saint on 27 January 1974.
