Timeline

2013

Toppi's reputation for holiness and his rapport with the faithful led to calls after his death for his cause of beatification to be introduced and the cause was introduced on 3 October 2013 titling Toppi as a Servant of God. He was named as Venerable in 2022.

On 15 April 2013 the bishops from the Campania region approved the proposal to request and launch the beatification cause for Toppi and this decision was communicated one month later. The official request was lodged to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints on 13 June 2013.

The cause commenced on 3 October 2013 under Pope Francis once the C.C.S. issued the official edict of "nihil obstat" (nothing against the cause) which approved the cause's introduction and titled Toppi as a Servant of God. Tommaso Caputo inaugurated the diocesan process on 2 April 2014 and later closed the process upon the investigation being completed on 13 October 2016. The C.C.S. ratified the diocesan process on 3 November 2017 and received the "Positio" dossier to assess in 2020. Nine theologians voiced their approval after assessing the dossier on 23 February 2021 and the C.C.S. also confirmed their approval later on 11 January 2022. Pope Francis named Toppi as Venerable on 20 January 2022 after he determined that the late bishop had lived a life of heroic virtue.

2007

Toppi died at 1:00am on 2 April 2007 in a Franciscan convent after a prolonged period of frail health and Cardinal Crescenzio Sepe presided over his funeral at 4:00pm on 3 April. His remains were interred in the Santuario della Beata Vergine del Rosario di Pompei.

Toppi collaborated with Catholic Action in Benevento and with the Secular Franciscan Order in Naples and he served on the Diocesan Pastoral Council of the Nola diocese from 1984 until 1989.

Cardinal Michele Giordano conferred episcopal consecration upon Toppi on the following 7 December in the Santuario della Beata Vergine del Rosario di Pompei. In 2000 he submitted his resignation to the pope in accordance with canon law and this was accepted later in 2001.

It was during this period that he made visits to both Africa and Latin America. He later taught at the Ateneo San Giovanni Evangelista in Palermo from 1974 to 1976 of which he was one of the co-founders of. Toppi later published the historical thesis entitled "Maria Lorenza Longo e l'Opera del Divino Amore a Napoli"; he was also a writer.
