Fidela Oller Angelats

Fidela Oller Angelats (born Maria Dolors Oller Angelats; 17 September 1869 – 30 August 1936) was a Spanish religious sister of the Hermanas de Sant Josep o Vetlladores (Sisters of Saint Joseph of Girona). She suffered martyrdom in the Spanish Civil War when she was gunned together along a road at Xeresa. Her paternal grandfather (also a potter) was Lorenzo Oller Bartra.

From age seventeen she aspired to enter the religious life more than she had in her childhood and decided that she would become a professed religious herself. This stemmed from when she first encountered the Religious Sisters of Saint Joseph of Girona who came to her town on 14 July 1880 in order to help in the local hospital; she was exposed to them during this time and was attracted to their work. Oller made her first attempt to join the order not long following this resolution but was forced to leave for home after the sudden death of her father in 1888 (he died while tending to an ill relative). Oller was beatified alongside her fellow religious Josefa Monrabal Montaner and Caterina Margenat Roura. Cardinal Amato - during the beatification Mass - noted that "even today, Christians are the most persecuted minority in the world". Pope Francis also hailed the trio in his Angelus remarks on 6 September 2015 and noted that "they were sisters of the Institute of Religious of Saint Joseph of Girona, killed for their fidelity to Christ and the Church". The pope further highlighted that the nuns were ever "trusting in God" who were recognized for "the shedding of their blood". The postulator for this cause is Sister Teresa Fernández Mielgo.
