Who they were

Limited information is available on this saint so far. We are always working to add more, and this page will be updated as new information comes to light.

The miracles

No miracle has been approved. The decree on heroic virtues has been promulgated; a miracle would come next.

Why that counted as sanctity

A young laywoman active in Catholic Action in San Potito di Lugo, in the diocese of Faenza-Modigliana, where her cause was opened in 1983. Benedict XVI approved the decree on her heroic virtues, promulgated by the Congregation for the Causes of Saints on 1 June 2007, making her Venerable.

The cause

Cleonilde (Nilde) Guerra has been declared Venerable; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: The cause of Cleonilde (Nilde) Guerra.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. Reporting one begins with the postulation.
