description: "Mary Catherine Kasper, A.D.J.C. was a German Catholic Religious Sister and the foundress of the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ. Kasper entered the religious life later in her life despite having harbored a desire to become a religious sister for a very long time. It did not materialize earlier due to aggravating circumstances such as Kasper's poor economic status and the deaths of both her father and her brother. Moreover, due to the secularization under Napoleon, no female religious orders existed in her region. Her dedication to the poor and the will was noted during the course of her life and she dedicated herself to this work with great zeal."
