Maria Orsola Bussone was a young woman from Vallo Torinese, Piedmont, Italy, who was declared a Servant of God in December 2000. On March 18, 2015, Pope Francis declared her a Venerable. == Life == Maria Orsola Bussone came from a family of blue collar workers. Her father owned a car repair office and her mother was a basic tailor (a "sarta"). Since her childhood she attended with great participation to the activities in her parish and could be present to several meetings of young Italian people in the Gen Movement, the young's section of Focolare Movement.

In July 1970 Maria Orsola, who liked to play guitar and to sing with other young people of her parish, went to a trip near to Venice, as an animator in the parish school-camp located at Ca' Savio.

This happened precisely in the area of Cavallino-Treporti. On 26 May 1996 Cardinal Giovanni Saldarini (Turin's archbishop), opened a diocesan inquiry in order to begin a beatification process, that closed with a positive ending on 17 December 2000. On 21 December 2000 the canonical trial was transferred to Vatican, to the section Congregation for the Causes of Saints. Postulator of the Cause of Beatification and Canonization is Dr. Waldery Hilgeman.
