The cause

Modesto García Martí has been beatified; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: Capuchins: Blessed Modesto Garcia Marti and his companions.

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