Gregory of Rimini
Italian philosopher
Who they were
Gregory, an Augustinian of Rimini, became rector of his order's seminary there and then a celebrated professor at the Sorbonne, called the 'Doctor authenticus'. He was a strong champion of the teaching of St Augustine on grace.
In 1357 he became General of the Augustinian Hermits and died at Vienna the next year.
The miracles
Many called him 'Blessed' for his learning and heroic virtue; the Catholic Encyclopedia does not describe a formal cause.
Why that counted as sanctity
A theologian admired for learning and virtue.
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.
