Blessed María Dolores Rodríguez Sopeña (†1918) was a Spanish Roman Catholic nun and the founder of the Sisters of the Catechetical Institute. Her religious activism came about from her earliest experiences in Almería where she tended to the poor including a leper though she later moved to Madrid and Puerto Rico where she continued her care for the poor and the sick. Her return to her native land saw her continue her work and her commitment to establishing religious and secular movements for others all directed towards active participation and care for poor people. Pope John Paul II later beatified her in Saint Peter's Square on 23 March 2003. Her Feastday is celebrated on 10 January.
