Wincenty Queralt Lloret
Who they were
Vicente Queralt Lloret, a priest of the Congregation of the Mission (Vincentians), was born in Barcelona and devoted himself especially to popular missions and youth ministry. When the Spanish Civil War broke out in 1936 his community's house and church were burned by anarchist militia, and he went into hiding, moving between refuges as he felt himself pursued.
He was eventually traced to the house of a benefactress, arrested, and shot on the night of 30 November 1936, aged 42; his body was buried in a mass grave and never recovered. He was beatified in Madrid in 2017 together with 38 companions of the Vincentian Family.

Why that counted as sanctity
