Maria Matilde Bucchi
Italian founder of the Sisters of the Most Precious Blood of Monza
Who they were
Born at Agrate Brianza in 1812, she founded the Sisters of the Most Precious Blood at Monza, where she died in 1882.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The decree on heroic virtues has been promulgated; a miracle would come next.
Why that counted as sanctity
The diocesan inquiry was opened in Milan on 29 October 1991 and the decree on her heroic virtues was promulgated on 28 April 2006.
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.
