Who they were

Eugenio García Pampliega was born at Villagonzalo Pedernales in Spain on 23 November 1902, entered the monastic school of Santa María de Viaceli at the age of thirteen, stayed on in the abbey and was ordained priest in April 1927.

He was beatified on 3 October 2015 by Pope Francis, among the Spanish Cistercian martyrs of the Strict Observance.

The miracles

As a martyr he was raised to the altars without a miracle.

Why that counted as sanctity

The Dicastery for the Causes of Saints names him among the Spanish Trappist martyrs beatified on 3 October 2015.

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.
