About Beniamino Filon
- Beniamino Filon (2 August 1900 - 21 July 1948) - in religious Giacomo da Balduina - was an Italian Roman Catholic priest and a professed member from the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin.
- Filon studied in Rovigo before being summoned to Milan for mandated service in the armed forces towards the close of World War I but following it was able to resume his studies in Bassano del Grappa.
- He was ordained to the priesthood and spent a brief respite in Slovenia due to a disease he was suffering from.
- He remained for most of his time as a friar listening to confessions in Udine but died in 1948 in Lourdes while on a pilgrimage. Filon's cause for beatification launched in the 1980s and he became titled as a Servant of God while the confirmation of his life of heroic virtue enabled for Pope Francis to name him as Venerable on 16 June 2017.
