CASTELLI, GIULIO. - Oratorian, b. in Turin in 1846, d. in the odour of sanctity at Cava dei Tirreni in 1926. Devoted to the devout life from childhood, he entered the Congregation of the Oratory of Turin and became a priest in 1869. In 1889 he moved to the Roman Oratory. Having become rector of the sanctuary of the Madonna dell'Olmo at Cava dei Tirreni, in 1896 he founded an oratory there, making it the centre of his tireless apostolic activity. He extended his work also into the Abruzzi. The cause for his beatification has been begun.
