Who they were

At Torres Vedras in Portugal, Blessed Gonçalo de Lagos, priest of the Order of Hermits of Saint Augustine, who devoted himself zealously to teaching the Christian precepts to children and the uneducated.

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 15 October as an Augustinian priest who zealously taught the faith to children and the unlettered.

The cause

Gonçalo de Lagos has been beatified; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: Augustinians: Blessed Gonzalo of Lagos.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. Reporting one begins with the postulation.
