Who they were

At Modugno near Bari in Apulia, Blessed Conrad, who led a hermit's life in Palestine, living until his death in a wretched cave.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The Roman Martyrology remembers him on 17 March as a hermit who had lived in Palestine, remembered at Modugno near Bari.

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.
