Today, Friday May 5, the Catholic Church celebrates the feast of San Nuncio Sulpricio.
Nuncio Sulpricio died in 1836, at the age of 19, weakened in his body by his condition as an exploited worker. However, not in his spirit, he offered up his suffering to God.
According to the Vatican website, he was beatified during the Second Vatican Council by Paul VI and would be canonized by Pope Francis during the Youth Synod.
The Catholic saints are the group of people recognized by the Church as saints or blessed on a specific date. The Roman Martyrology is the document that names and distributes in the calendar the almost 7,000 saints and blessed recognized by the Church.
The saints and saints are prominent men and women in the various religious traditions for their special relationships with the divinities or for a particular ethical elevation. While the consideration of blessed constitutes the third step on the path to canonization.
