Who they were

Limited information is available on this saint so far. We are always working to add more, and this page will be updated as new information comes to light.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

As parish priest of Anoia Superiore in Reggio Calabria he formed the group of young women that became the Missionary Sisters of Evangelisation, who name him as their founder and Servant of God. He died in Oaxaca, Mexico, in 1984; his cause opened on 15 December 2014.

The cause

Vincenzo Idà is named a Servant of God; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: The cause of Vincenzo Idà.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. Reporting one begins with the postulation.
