Pope Leo XIV, the first Pope from the United States, recently recognized the first miracle of his pontificate. Marking another “first,” the incident is also the only Vatican-approved miracle to have occurred in Rhode Island.
The declaration came as part of a June 20 decree that named 174 new martyrs, mostly victims of 20th-century authoritarian regimes. The decree also approved the reported 2007 healing of a premature infant at Memorial Hospital in Pawtucket, attributing the healing to the intercession of a 19th-century Spanish priest.
