Who they were

At Perugia, Blessed James of Cerqueto, priest of the Order of Hermits of Saint Augustine, who gave an example of serene endurance of illness.

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 17 April as an Augustinian priest who gave an example of serene endurance of illness.

The cause

James of Cerqueto has been beatified; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: Diocese of Perugia: Blessed James of Cerqueto.

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