Father Silvano Giordano, consultor to the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints

On January 13th, Holy Father Francis appointed Father Silvano Giordano, Discalced Carmelite, as a consultor to the Congregation for the Causes of the Saints.

Father Silvano is from the Province of Genoa, has a doctorate in ecclesiastical history (Gregorian University, 1992), and is a professor at the Teresianum in Rome, where he also holds the office of Vice Dean (“Vice Preside”). Additionally, he is a guest professor of modern history in the Faculty of History and Cultural Heritage of the Church of the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome.

Professor Tiziana María di Blasio, who also teaches in our Faculty, was appointed consultor to the same congregation on that day as well.
