Who they were

At Barbastro, also in Spain, Blesseds Felipe de Jesús Munárriz Azcona, Juan Díaz Nosti and Leoncio Pérez Ramos, priests, Missionary Sons of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and martyrs, shot by militiamen at the gates of the cemetery during the persecution against the Church in hatred of religious life.

The miracles

As a martyr he was raised to the altars without a miracle.

Why that counted as sanctity

The Roman Martyrology remembers him on 2 August as one of three Claretian priests shot at the gates of the cemetery of Barbastro.

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.
