Who they were

Fernando Martín-Sánchez Juliá joined the Catholic Association of Propagandists in 1919 and was its second president from 1935 to 1953, founded the National Confederation of Catholic Students in 1920 and the CEU in 1933, and taught at the El Debate school of journalism.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The nihil obstat came in 2013 and the diocesan inquiry opened in Santander on 26 November 2015; the ACdP lists him among its causes of canonisation as Servant of God.

The cause

Fernando Martín-Sánchez Juliá 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 Fernando Martín-Sánchez Juliá.

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