This blessed hierarch lived in our own time (†1966) and was recently glorified by the Holy Church (1994). His life teaches us that evil times are in no way a hindrance to holiness and virtue, and that one can become a saint whatever the external circumstances. His incorrupt relics are found in the “Joy of All Who Sorrow” Cathedral in San Francisco, U.S.A.
