Who they were

A professed priest of the Passionists under the name Norberto of Our Lady of the Garden, he held positions of responsibility in his province and was widely sought as a confessor, spiritual director and preacher of retreats.

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

The informative process ran in 1960-1961 and the Passionist general curia states that he was declared Venerable in 1994.

The cause

Domenico Cassinelli (Norberto of Our Lady of the Garden) 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 Domenico Cassinelli (Norberto of Our Lady of the Garden).

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