Who they were
A priest of the diocese of Novara and director of its clerics, devoted to the Pietà of Cannobio.
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
John Paul II recognised his heroic virtues on 19 April 2004.
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.
