Biography

Blessed Giuliano Mayali, also known as Giuliano of Palermo, Julian, or Juliano, was born in the late 14th century in Palermo, Sicily, Italy. Feeling a deep call to the contemplative religious life of a hermit, Giuliano entered the Benedictine Order and became a monk at Santa Maria delle Ciambre near Monreale in 1417. He dedicated himself fully to his monastic vocation, giving away all his wealth and possessions to the monastery.
