VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Although Pope Francis already set Aug. 3 as the date to declare the sainthood of Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, Pope Leo XIV will hold a meeting with cardinals to approve his canonization and that of seven other people.
The meeting, known as an “ordinary public consistory,” is scheduled for June 13, the Vatican announced.
Blessed Vincenza Maria Poloni, founder of the Sisters of Mercy of Verona, Italy; she lived from 1802-1855.
Blessed Maria Troncatti, a Salesian sister born in Italy in 1883 who became a missionary in Ecuador in 1922.
He contracted polio, probably from one of the people he was helping, and died in 1925 at the age of 24.
