Faustino Míguez González was a 19th-century Spanish priest and member of the Piarist order. Known by his religious name, Faustino of the Incarnation, he was a versatile figure who combined his interests in natural sciences with pastoral work. He gained recognition for his ability to prepare herbal medicines to treat the sick and for his dedicated service as a confessor. Driven by a desire to support marginalized and illiterate women, he founded the Daughters of the Divine Shepherdess, an educational religious congregation, to promote female empowerment through learning.
