Peter the Monk of Córdoba

Who they were

At Cordoba in Andalusia in Spain, the holy martyrs Amator, a priest, Peter, a monk, and Louis, who, during the persecution of the Moors, were cruelly killed for not ceasing to preach openly the Gospel of Christ.

The miracles

There was never a formal cause: he has been honoured as a saint since before the Church's formal processes began.

Why that counted as sanctity

The Roman Martyrology remembers him on 30 April as a monk cruelly killed at Cordoba during the persecution of the Moors for preaching the Gospel openly.
