Biography

Blessed Jaime Ortiz Alzueta, also known as Jaime Alzuetaz, was born on May 24, 1913, in Pamplona, Navarra, Spain. As a young child, Jaime exhibited a wild and undisciplined nature, but at the age of 12, he was entrusted to the care of the Salesians, a religious order known for their work in education.
