The Vatican record

  • 7 November 2018 — Long-standing veneration confirmed (equipollent beatification) (decree list, 2018)

Who they were

Michele Giedrojć was a professed lay brother of the Order of St Augustine; he was born at Giedrojce, Lithuania, around the year 1420 and died in Kraków on 4 May 1485. On 7 November 2018 Pope Francis approved the decree on his heroic virtue and on the confirmation of his veneration from time immemorial, an equivalent beatification.

The miracles

He was beatified by confirmation of long-standing veneration, without an approved miracle.

Why that counted as sanctity

Beatified in 2018 by confirmation of long-standing veneration.

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.
