Who they were

The Acts of the Apostolic See record the decree on the martyrdom of Pedro Ortiz de Zárate, a diocesan priest, and Giovanni Antonio Solinas, a professed priest of the Society of Jesus, in the cause of Nueva Orán.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The Church recognised his death as a true martyrdom.

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.
