Giovanni Pelingotto
Feast: 1 June (not on the universal Roman calendar; kept in the Roman Martyrology or local calendars)
Who they were
At Urbino in the Marche, Blessed Giovanni Pelingotto, of the Third Order of Saint Francis, who, a merchant, enriched others more than himself and, having withdrawn to a cell, left it only to help the poor and the sick.
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 1 June as a Franciscan tertiary merchant of Urbino who left his cell only to help the poor and sick.
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.
