Who they were

With Archbishop José María García Lahiguera she founded the Oblate Sisters of Christ the Priest, a contemplative congregation offering its life for priests.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

Her congregation calls her a Servant of God and published her biography through the Biblioteca de Autores Cristianos in 2025; the cause was opened in the archdiocese of Madrid in 2013.

The cause

María del Carmen Hidalgo de Caviedes y Gómez is named a Servant of God; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: The cause of María del Carmen Hidalgo de Caviedes y Gómez.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. Reporting one begins with the postulation.
