Religious commemorations and beatification ceremonies are scheduled to take place in Italy. In Mantua, the beatification of Mother Maria Ignazia Isacchi, founder of the Congregation of the Ursuline Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus of Asola, will be held on Saturday, October 10, at the Basilica of Sant’Andrea. The ceremony will be presided over by Cardinal Marcello Semeraro, acting as the papal delegate.
