Why that counted as sanctity
Laywoman of Tropea who, with Venerable Francesco Mottola, cofounded the secular institute of the Oblates of the Sacred Heart and led the diocesan women's branch of Catholic Action. The Congregation for the Causes of Saints granted the nulla osta on 20 October 2014 and the diocesan phase opened in Tropea concathedral on 26 December 2014.
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.
