  • Blessed Andrea Ferrari (13 August 1850 – 2 February 1921) - later adopting the middle name "Carlo" - was an Italian Roman Catholic prelate who served as a cardinal and as the Archbishop of Milan from 1894 until his death.
  • Ferrari was a well-regarded pastor and theologian who led two dioceses before being appointed to the prestigious Milanese archdiocese which he led until his death.
  • But he was later accused of Modernism which led to a strained relationship with Pope Pius X who later reconciled with Ferrari in 1912.The cause for his canonization opened after his death in 1963 and he became titled as a Servant of God.
  • He was named Venerable in 1975, and Pope John Paul II beatified him in 1987.
