James of Viterbo
Italian archbishop
Feast: 4 June (not on the universal Roman calendar; kept in the Roman Martyrology or local calendars)
Who they were
At Naples, commemoration of Blessed James Capocci, bishop, who from being a hermit of Saint Augustine was called to govern the Church of Benevento and then that of Naples, all of which he enlightened with wisdom, learning and prudence.
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 12 December as an Augustinian hermit who became bishop of Benevento and then of Naples.
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.
