About me / Bio:
Josif Papamihali was born in Elbasan on September 23, 1912. He studied philosophy and theology in Rome, near the Angelicum, where he was ordained a priest on December 1, 1935 by the Italo-Albanian bishop of the Eparchy of Lungro and the bishop of Greek-Byzantine rite who ordains the Albanians of Sicily. Papamihali returned to Albania in 1936 and served as a parish priest in Elbasan, Korçë, Berat, Lushnje and Pogradec. From 1944 he was in charge of the Mission of the Greco-Catholic Church of Albania. He was arrested by the communist authorities in Korçë on October 31, 1946 and was later convicted as an enemy of the state. On August 5, 1947 Papamihali was sentenced by the courts to 5 years imprisonment and forced labor and was transferred to Korçë and later Maliq where he died. He was found buried alive in a marsh where he had fallen from exhaustion on October 26, 1948. He was beatified in Shkodër along with thirty-seven other fellow Albanian martyrs on November 5, 2016.
