Who they were

After twenty years of apostolate across Spain she began taking in children in Málaga and Córdoba, work recognised by the Church of Córdoba in 1978 as Hogar de Nazaret, now present in Spain, Ecuador, Peru and the Dominican Republic.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The Dicastery for the Causes of Saints granted the nulla osta on 5 September 2023 and the Bishop of Cádiz opened her cause of beatification and canonization on 24 February 2024.

The cause

María del Prado Almagro Roldán 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 Prado Almagro Roldán.

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