Who they were

Fenollera Roca was a priest of the archdiocese of Valencia and founded the Instituto de Religiosas Operarias del Divino Maestro, known as the Avemarianas, whose charism is Christian education through schools.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The archdiocese of Valencia refers to him as Servant of God; his diocesan inquiry was opened at Valencia in 1985 and the nihil obstat granted in 1995.

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.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. If you know the postulation’s own page, tell us and it will be added here.
