Fr. Dolindo Ruotolo was born, in Naples, Italy on October 6,1882.
Ordained at the young age of 23 on June 24, 1905, Don Dolindo dedicated
every moment of his long life to prayer and penance at the service of
thousands of faithful who asked for his spiritual direction and turned to
him for help and comfort. The testimonies of miraculous healing due to his intercession before
and after his death cannot be counted: tuberculosis healed, limbs made
well, suicide attempts stopped due to his tempestuous intervention and so
on. He never denied his help to anyone pleading with Jesus for all who ask
and confide in him.
Don Dolindo died in Naples on November 19, 1970, in the extreme
voluntary poverty he had chosen to live throughout his life. He told people
to knock at his tomb for their needs and he would continue to answer.
Now, more then ever, people flock to his Church and knock at his tomb,
confident of his intercession and receiving healings and graces. He is a candidate for beatification and the Catholic Church has granted him the title "Servant of God".
