Pope Leo XIV Moves Six Faithful Closer to Sainthood

Pope Leo XIV authorized the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints to promulgate decrees advancing six individuals toward sainthood: Ludovico Altieri (offering of life); Edward Joseph Flanagan; Henri Caffarel; Stanisława Samulowska; María of Bethlehem of the Heart of Jesus Romero Algarín; and Giuseppe Castagnetti.
