His Excellency, Don Teodoro de Faria
Bishop
Emeritus of Funchal, Madeira Island, Portugal, author of a new book
about Blessed Karl. As Bishop of the diocese in which Blessed Karl died
in 1922, Bishop de Faria has long been active in his cause for
sainthood, and it was he who formally presented to the Holy
Father the petition to
beatify Emperor Karl at the
beatification ceremony in Saint Peter’s Square on 3 October 2004. A
native of Madeira, Bishop de Faria was ordained in 1956 at the age of
26, consecrated bishop of Funchal in 1982, and since his retirement in
2007, has been working on his book about Blessed Karl, which he will
discuss during his remarks.

Portugal until his death in 1989. His paternal grandfather was one of
the doctors called for consultation during the final illness of Emperor
Karl, and it was he who signed his death certificate.
