Nils Hermansson
Bishop of Linköping in Sweden
Who they were
The Roman Martyrology for 2 May places him at Linköping in Sweden, a bishop who was severe with himself, gave himself entirely to his Church and to the poor, and received the relics of Saint Bridget with honour.
The miracles
The source does not describe the miracles approved in the cause.
Why that counted as sanctity
Honoured as blessed for a bishop's life given to his Church and to the poor.
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.
