Indigenous Argentine Gets His March On Toward Sainthood
14 November 2007, 12:45 PM. By Alex Alvarez
Ceferino Namuncura, a Mapuche Indian, was beatified in a ceremony attended by tens of thousands in Southern Argentina, an event many see as his initial step toward becoming the first-ever indigenous Argentine saint. He is credited with curing a woman of uterine cancer when she prayed to him seven years ago. However, a second miracle is needed before Namuncura can be named a Saint of the Catholic Church.
What a pimp! Putting the “cura” in Namuncura since 1897.

Uh-oh, an Argentine saint who isn’t blonde with blue eyes… the Argies aren’t gonna like that.
The MAPUCHE INDIANS were native of the Chilean territory only, but I dont put it pass the Argentineans to claim the guy their own, after Maradona f..up they need a new hero.
