Elisabetta Sanna (full name Elisabetta Sanna Porcu) (23 April 1788 – 17 February 1857) was an Italian Roman Catholic from Codrongianos Province of Sassari who was an active member of both the Secular Franciscan Order and the Union of the Catholic Apostolate.
In the latter she was a friend and compatriot of Vincent Pallotti.
As a result of smallpox, Sanna was for the most part disabled and further ailments prevented her from returning to her hometown after departing on a pilgrimage; this forced her to take up residence in Rome where she later died. Sanna married and bore seven children but was widowed after almost two decades of marriage.Pope Francis proclaimed her to be Venerable in 2014 after determining that she lived a model Christian life of heroic virtue.
The pope approved the miracle attributed to her in 2016 which allowed for her beatification to occur.
Cardinal Angelo Amato – on the behalf of the pope – presided over the beatification on 17 September 2016.
