Saint Giacinto

Giacinto Gaggia (8 October 1847 - 15 April 1933) was an Italian Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Bishop of Brescia from 1913 until his death. Born in the Brescia province to Emmanuele Giacomo Gaggia and Angela Boninsegna di Manerbio, he received the subdiaconate in Brescia on 19 December 1868 and was later elevated to the diaconate also in Brescia on 31 October 1869. Ordained in Rome in 1870, Gaggia was consecrated to the episcopate in the Lateran Basilica in 1909 and made an archbishop in 1930. He ordained Giovanni Battista Montini (the future Pope Paul VI) to the priesthood in mid-1920. Bishop Gaggia died on 15 April 1933, serving as the Bishop of Brescia until his passing.
