Who they were

At Vigevano in Lombardy, Blessed Matthew (Giovanni Francesco) Carrieri, priest of the Order of Preachers, who was in his time an incisive and eloquent preacher of the word of God.

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 5 October as an eloquent Dominican preacher who died at Vigevano.

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.

    “Matthew Carreri, (Italian: Matteo Carreri; ca 1420 – 5 October 1470) was a Dominican friar noted for the "austerity of his life." He was the spiritual instructor of Stephana de Quinzanis, and like her, an alleged stigmatic.” — Wikipedia
