Who they were
Di Mauro married at her parents' insistence and, widowed, entered the Poor Clares at Messina but had to leave.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
Her cause for beatification was opened at Siracusa in 1984, more than fifty years after her death.
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.
