Caterina Dominici (10 October 1829 – 21 February 1894) was an Italian Roman Catholic nun who took the name of Maria Enrichetta after she became a nun of the Sisters of Saint Anne. During the 1854 Broad Street cholera outbreak she cared for and ministered to countless people. She then went on to serve for over three decades as the Superior General of her congregation. She was also a friend and adviser to John Bosco.
She was beatified on 7 May 1978 by Pope Paul VI, and her cause for canonization is open and ongoing.[1]
