On Saturday 17th January, the Pope received in private audience Archbishop Angelo Amato, prefect of the Congregation for Saints' Causes, and authorized the congregation to promulgate the following decrees.

Miracles attributed to the intercession of the following:

-- Ciriaco María Sancha y Hervás (1833-1909), Spanish cardinal archbishop of Toledo, founder of the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity.
-- Bernardo Francisco de Hoyos (1711-1735), Spanish professed priest of the Society of Jesus.

Proclamation of the heroic virtue of the following was also approved:

-- Juan de Palafox y Mendoza (1600-1659), Spanish bishop of Osma.
-- María Salvat Romero (1926-1998) (born Maria Isabella), Spanish superior-general of the Sisters of the Cross.
-- Liberata Ferrarons y Vives (1803-1842), Spanish laywoman of the Third Order of Carmelites.

Last month, the Holy Father also approved a decree promulgating the heroic virtue of José Tous y Soler (1811-1871), Spanish professed priest of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchins and founder of the Capuchin sisters of the Mother of the Divine Shepherd.

I don't suppose that any readers will have news of the causes of José Jordan and José Nardal, curates of the cathedral in Huesca (Cami de San Jaume) who died in 1936.

Upon reflection, that must be one of the most obscure requests for information that I have ever made.
