Saint Beatrice of Silva (†1492) was a Portuguese noblewoman who became the foundress of the monastic Order of the Immaculate Conception. She was imprisoned when her great beauty began to arouse the jealousy of the Queen. During the incarceration, Beatrice experienced an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary, in which she was instructed to founded a new religious order in Marys's honor. In 1484, Beatrice, with some companions, took possession of a palace in Toledo set apart for them by Queen Isabella I of Castile for the new community under the name Monastery of the Holy Faith, which was to be dedicated to honoring the Immaculate Conception of Mary. In 1489, by permission of Pope Innocent VIII, the nuns adopted the Cistercian Rule,[3] bound themselves to the daily recitation of the office of the Immaculate Conception, and were placed under obedience to the ordinary of the archdiocese. The foundress determined on the religious habit, which is white, with a white scapular and blue mantle, with a medallion of Mary under her title of the Immaculate Conception. She was beatified in 1926 by Pope Pius XI and was canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1976. Her feast day is celebrated by the Conceptionist nuns and the Franciscan Order and in Spain on 1 September, but in 2012 was transferred to 17 August for Portugal.
