Who they were

Natale, the fourth of seven children of farmers at San Giovanni Rotondo, became a Capuchin friar in the friary of Padre Pio's town.

The miracles

No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.

Why that counted as sanctity

Santi e Beati lists him as a Servant of God and gives his birth as 11 March 1919; the Hagiography Circle gives 28 June 1914, and the Catholic source has been followed. The diocesan inquiry was opened in 2012.

The cause

Daniele da San Giovanni Rotondo (Michele Natale) is named a Servant of God; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: The cause of Daniele da San Giovanni Rotondo (Michele Natale).

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