Why that counted as sanctity
The Diocese of Huelva is conducting the cause of beatification of the Servant of God Madre Luisa Sosa Fontenla, opened after the nihil obstat from the Holy See in 2023; the diocese constituted the historical and archival commission of the cause on 11 September 2026.
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.
