Francisca de Paula de Jesus (São João del-Rei, Minas Gerais, 1810 - Baependi, Minas Gerais, 14 June 1895) - also known as Nhá Chica ("Aunt Francie" in Portuguese) - was a Brazilian Roman Catholic laywoman who was a popular religious figure in Brazil known for her humble life and her dedication to God. Nhá Chica bore no surname and was an illegitimate child born to a slave mother; she herself as a slave until being freed in 1820 which allowed her to dedicate herself to the plight of the region's poor and the construction of a Marian chapel near which she resided for the remainder of her life.
