The only source cited for this article is a website in Italian that claims the Mercedarian Order observes the apparent subject’s feast day on 23 November, but a quick search for "23 November Catholic saints" shows that she is not on the saints’ calendar.
Furthermore, a Google search for a "St Teresa of Jesus" comes up with Teresa of Ávila, who was canonized in 1622 and exalted to patroness of Spain by the Cortes Generales in 1627 – exactly the same years claimed for the birth and death of this alleged saint "Teresa of Jesus, Child."
All of this points towards being a likely hoax, and a very long-lasting one at that (over 11 years). 00sClassicGamerFan (talk) 07:02, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
