Who they were
A Capuchin of the Marches sought after as an extraordinary confessor in seminaries and parishes, who died at the friary of Macerata in 1936.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
The nihil obstat came on 6 July 2002 and the diocesan inquiry opened on 25 July 2002.
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.
