Who they were
Amendolagine was a married layman and Secular Carmelite known for refusing any favour in his public work.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
The cause of Ulisse and his wife Lelia was opened at the Vicariate of Rome on 18 June 2004 by Cardinal Camillo Ruini.
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.
