Who they were

Henri Euzenat was a layman born at Blemes on 6 September 1920 and baptised three days later; his family moved to Magenta, where he studied with the Brothers of the Christian Schools and was taken on in a sewing workshop, and he joined the Young Christian Workers on 8 November 1940. Recruited on 4 September 1942 and taken the next month to Karlsruhe with his brother George, he was arrested on 29 January 1944 and died at Mauthausen-Gusen on 25 April 1945, aged 24. He was beatified on 13 December 2025 by Pope Leo XIV.

The miracles

The source does not describe the miracles approved in the cause.

Why that counted as sanctity

A member of the Young Christian Workers taken with his brother to forced labour, he died at Mauthausen-Gusen at 24.

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.
