Just curious. I wonder whether there are any Eastern Catholics to whom God gave the grace of receiving the wounds of Christ (stigmata) or did only Latin Rite Catholics ever receive them? I know of Croatian priest Zlatko Sudac, but I think he's a Latin Rite Catholic too.

The stigmata is sores or wounds in the places that Jesus suffered wounds during the crucifixion. That's about as much as I know. My questions, to be answered from a Catholic perspective: 1. What's the purpose of the stigmata? 2. What is the Biblical basis, if any, for the stigmata? 3. How does the stigmata not indicate Christ's suffering was insufficient? 4. How do we know that the stigmata reflects Christ's crucifixion and not someone else that was crucified?
