Who they were

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The nihil obstat was granted on 27 February 1991 and the diocesan inquiry closed in 1994.

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.
