Who they were

A teacher and father of a family in Bari, he left politics in 1919 for study and teaching and came to the Catholic faith in the 1920s, becoming a formative figure for a generation of students.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

He is a Servant of God of the archdiocese of Bari-Bitonto, the nihil obstat having been granted in 1995.

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.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. If you know the postulation’s own page, tell us and it will be added here.
