Vincenzo Grossi (9 March 1845 – 7 November 1917) was an Italian Roman Catholic priest and the founder of the Daughters of the Oratory.

Pope Paul VI beatified Grossi on 1 November 1975 and a second miracle that Pope Francis approved in 2015 paved the path for his eventual canonization. He was canonized as a saint of the Roman Catholic Church on 18 October 2015.[1]
