Juan Manuel Martín del Campo (14 December 1917 – 13 August 1996) was a Mexican Roman Catholic priest and exorcist.
He was a student and friend of the bishop Saint Rafael Guízar Valencia and studied for the priesthood in secret during the Cristero War that plagued Mexico during the thirties.
He was even dubbed as "the new Padre Pio" due to his similarities to the Italian Capuchin. He became titled as a Servant of God under Pope Benedict XVI on 27 November 2008 once the canonization cause commenced and he was titled as Venerable on 30 September 2015 after Pope Francis confirmed that the late priest led a life of heroic virtue.
