Francisco de Borja Girón Fernández
Spanish priest of Huelva, a member of the Prado priests
Who they were
Known as Paco Girón, he was pro-vicar general, episcopal vicar and parish priest in the diocese of Huelva and belonged to the Prado association of priests. ODISUR, the bishops' media office for southern Spain, gives his birth as 13 October 1922 in Seville and his death as 15 January 2009, against the Hagiography Circle's 26 July 1938 and 14 January 2009.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
An association for his canonisation was formed in 2017, the bishops of southern Spain approved the opening of the cause on 23 May 2018, and Teodoro León of Seville was named postulator for the diocesan phase.
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.
