Who they were
Priest and spiritual writer born at Palaia near Pisa, founder of the Community of the Sons of God, who died at Settignano outside Florence.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
The Tuscan bishops gave a favourable opinion for his cause in 2011, renewed in 2020, and the diocesan inquiry into his heroic virtues opened at Florence on 25 September 2021.
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.
