Who they were
A contemplative of the Order of the Visitation in Mexico City whose inner life was shaped by the Salesian tradition and devotion to the Sacred Heart.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
Her cause was opened in the archdiocese of Mexico in 1988, with the nihil obstat of 11 January 1989.
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.
