About Very Reverend Father Alfred Pampalon
Overview Pere Alfred Pampalon was a priest and Redemptorist. He would not be remembered were it not for the reputation as a saint by which he became widely known after his death, and for the various proceedings instituted to establish the heroic nature of his virtues. The Roman Catholic Church has yet to pronounce by papal decree on the heroic nature of his virtues, the stage preceding beatification. The faithful have not waited for this decision to show their devotion to Pampalon. Almost constantly since his death, people have attributed to his intercession answers to their prayers. He is known as the "Hail Mary Saint".
