Some of the married saints in history include Mary and Joseph, Priscilla and Aquila, Justinian and Theodora (482-565, from the Orthodox tradition), St. Stephen and Blessed Gisela (11th century) and Isidore of Madrid and Maria de la Cabeza (12th century).
And if the people of St. Verena's Parish in Volkertshausen, Germany, have there way, some of those married saints might be priests.
The parish councils of St. Verenaþs and three other nearby parishes have asked members of The German Union of Married Priests to preside at Sunday Eucharist for them when the regular pastor the four parishes share is unavailable, according to a report by PATRICIA LEFEVERE in the February 21 issue of the NATIONAL CATHOLIC REPORTER.

St Verena is one of those saints about whom nothing at all is known apart from the simple fact of their existence.
To illustrate why this is a problem, one-third of the entry for St. Maria Goretti is not about her; it's a critique of her sainthood and of the Church.
