Who they were

At Avignonet near Toulouse in France, Blessed William Arnaud and ten companions, who, united in their commitment to oppose the heresy of the Cathars, were arrested by deceit because of their faith in Christ and their obedience to the Church of Rome, and died pierced by the sword on the night of the Ascension of the Lord, while singing the Te Deum with one voice. Among those named is Blessed Stefan z Narbony.

The miracles

The Roman Martyrology does not describe the miracles approved in the cause.

Why that counted as sanctity
