Edith Stein
Edith Stein was a German Jewish philosopher who converted to Catholicism and became a barefoot Carmelite nun. She was canonized as a martyr and a saint of the Catholic Church, and she is one of the six co-patron saints of Europe. She was born into a Jewish family of practice, but became an atheist when she was a teenager. Touched by the tragedies of World War I, she took courses in 1915 to become a nurse assistant and work in an infectious hospital hospital. After completing her doctoral thesis at the University of Friborg in 1916, she received a post of assistant here. After reading the life of the Carmelite reformer Saint Teresa of Ávila, Edith Stein was drawn to the Catholic faith. She was baptized on January 1, 1922, entering the Catholic Church. At that time, she wanted to become a Carmelite nun but was discouraged by her spiritual master, Father de Beuron Archabbey. She then taught at a Catholic school in Speyer.
