Who they were

Rosetta Franzi and her husband Giovanni Gheddo, both members of Catholic Action, are Servants of God as a married couple; she died in childbirth in 1934.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The archdiocese of Vercelli obtained the nihil obstat on 30 September 2005 and opened the diocesan inquiry on 18 February 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.

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.
