What is the Closing of the Diocesan Phase?
Once the diocesan investigation is finished, the findings are sent to the Dicastery for the Causes of Saints. The postulator, residing in Rome, under the direction of a member of the Dicastery’s staff called a relator, prepares the Positio to prove the martyrdoms of the Servants of God, Antonio Injia and Companions. Read more from the USCCB.
