Maria Costanza Panas (15 January 1896 - 28 May 1963) - born Agnese Pacifica Panas - was an Italian Roman Catholic professed religious and a member of the Capuchin Poor Clares. Panas did her education in northern Italian cities before she worked as a teacher. It was not until a short while following her teaching career that she decided to become a nun and so entered a convent in secret after her parents and priest uncle exhibited opposition to her desire. In the convent she served as novice mistress and served as an abbess on two separate occasions and was even elected to a prominent religious council despite her several severe illnesses during the late 1950s.
