“Soon we will be able to say ‘Jacinto Vera, blessed.’ He was the first bishop of Uruguay, who toured the entire country, who brought peace to hearts, who cared for the poor and comforted all the afflicted. The one who gave rise to the Catholic laity, the one who brought many congregations to work in assisting hospitals and the poor. We celebrate all this”, said the Archbishop of Montevideo, Daniel Sturla.
On the other hand, the Episcopal Conference recalled that Vera was a “missionary and apostle of the city and the countryside, he toured the entire country three times. He helped the wounded in civil wars and led peace missions. Father of the poor, friend of his priests, he was a promoter of the commitment of lay Christians in the life of the society of the time. He promoted education and the Catholic press. He founded the seminary for the formation of priests ».
The miracle recognized by Pope Francis is the rapid, lasting, and complete healing of a 14-year-old girl that occurred on October 8, 1936. The girl’s name was María del Carmen Artagaveytia Usher
Jacinto Vera will be beatified by the Pope
