Victoire Rasoamanarivo was a 19th-century Catholic laywoman from Antananarivo, Madagascar, who dedicated her life to serving the impoverished and the ill. After converting to Catholicism in 1863, she faced significant opposition from her parents, who attempted to steer her toward Protestantism. Despite being married to a difficult man, she remained committed to her marriage vows and her faith. She is recognized for her steadfast devotion to prayer and her charitable work, particularly during periods when Catholic practices were prohibited in her country.
