The Vatican is investigating an alleged miracle that could put Pope Pius XII just one step away from sainthood.
An unnamed man in Castellammare di Stabia in the south of Italy has claimed he was inexplicably healed from incurable prostate cancer after he prayed to the wartime pope. After examining the patient’s medical records the Vatican has asked the Archbishop of Sorrento, Felice Cece, to set up a diocesan tribunal to investigate the claims further.
If the Vatican ultimately approves a miracle the way will be clear for the beatification of Pius, after which he will be declared “Blessed”.
