Bernard of Offida (7 November 1604 – 22 August 1694) - born Domenico Peroni - was an Italian Roman Catholic professed religious from the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin from the Marche area.[1] Peroni lived for the most part in servitude to his fellow friars in various capacities and he was noted for his strong Eucharistic dedication and for his holiness.[2][3]
Peroni was beatified in mid-1795.
