Agnes of Jesus, O.P., (born Agnès Galand and also known as Agnes of Langeac; November 17, 1602 – October 19, 1634) was a French Catholic nun of the Dominican Order. She was prioress of her monastery at Langeac, and is today venerated in the Roman Catholic Church, having been beatified by Pope John Paul II on November 20, 1994. ==Life== Agnès Galand was born on November 17, 1602 in Le Puy-en-Velay, France, the third of seven children of Pierre Galand, a cutler by trade, and his wife, Guillemette Massiote. When she was five years old, Agnes was entrusted to a religious institute for her education. Even from that early age, she showed a strong sense of spiritual maturity. She consecrated herself to the Virgin Mary at the age of seven. Agnes joined the Dominican Monastery of St. Catherine of Siena at Langeac in 1623.〔〔 At her receiving of the religious habit she took the name Agnes of Jesus. Soon after her own profession, she was assigned to serve as the Mistress of novices for the community. Agnes was elected to lead her community as prioress in 1627.〔 She was later deposed from this office, but she accepted her demotion with indifference and grace.〔 She died on October 19, 1634 in Langeac.〔
