Giuseppe Carraro (26 June 1899 – 30 December 1980) was an Italian Roman Catholic bishop who was the Bishop Emeritus of Verona. He also served as the Bishop of Vittorio Veneto until his transferral to the see of Verona. He was considered a man of holiness and this allowed for his cause of beatification. He now has the posthumous title of Venerable after Pope Francis - in 2015 - confirmed his heroic virtue. ==Life== Giuseppe Carraro was born in Mira on 26 June 1899 and was baptized with the names of Giovanni Giuseppe Moise. In 1910 Father Eugenio Dorigon suggested to his parents that he commence his studies for the priesthood. Despite the economic difficulties to ensure this he commenced his studies in Treviso in October 1910. The outbreak of World War I led to his conscription on 17 June 1917 and he remained there until 13 April 1920. On 31 March 1923 Bishop Giacinto Longhin ordained him into the priesthood. He continued his studies in Padua and received a degree in natural sciences. He also met Elia Dalla Costa - future cardinal and Servant of God. From 1928 he taught various subjects that included humanities and mathematics. He became rector in 1944 as the replacement of Vittorio Alessi and worked to ensure that seminarians grew from both a cultural and spiritual perspective. Pope Pius XII later appointed Carraro as the Titular Bishop of Usula and as the Auxiliary Bishop of Treviso. He received episcopal consecration on 1 November 1952. The co-consecrators included Girolamo Bortignon and Gioacchino Muccin. Pius XII later elevated Carraro to the see of Vittorio Veneto where he entered on 9 June 1956. He took as his episcopal motto "Vince in bono". Pope John XXIII appointed him as the Bishop of Verona where he was installed in the beginning of 1959. He partook in all sessions of the Second Vatican Council and partook in the 1967 and 1974 Synod of Bishops at the behest of Pope Paul VI. He resigned from his position in 1978 prior to turning 75 as canon law dictates. Giuseppe Carraro died on 30 December 1980. Cardinal Marco Cé - the Patriarch of Venice - celebrated his funeral and said: "We have lost a brother, full of spiritual wisdom and pastoral experience, but we have been given an intercessor in heaven". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Giuseppe Carraro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
