The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
After the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints granted the nihil obstat, Archbishop Socrates Villegas opened the diocesan inquiry at St John the Evangelist Cathedral, Dagupan, on 27 March 2026, giving him the title Servant of God.
The cause
The cause continues. No postulation address is published here yet. Favours received through this person’s intercession, and offers of help, are best sent to the religious order or congregation they belonged to, or to the diocese where the cause was opened; either will pass them to the postulation.
