Who they were

At Certaldo in Tuscany, Blessed Giulia Della Rena, of the Third Order of Saint Augustine, who lived for God alone, enclosed in a narrow cell beside the church.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

The Roman Martyrology remembers her on 9 January as an Augustinian tertiary enclosed in a cell beside the church at Certaldo.

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.
