No, I do not know. I've "heard" things but not verified them.

Copilot says:
Becoming a canonized saint in the Catholic Church is a rigorous process that involves several steps:
  1. Servant of God: The process begins at least five years after the person's death (though the Pope can waive this waiting period). A bishop from the candidate's diocese investigates their life and virtues, and if approved, the candidate is titled "Servant of God".
  2. Venerable: The Vatican's Congregation for the Causes of Saints reviews the candidate's life for evidence of "heroic virtue," meaning they lived an exceptionally holy and virtuous life. If approved, they are declared "Venerable".
  3. Beatification: To be beatified and declared "Blessed," one verified miracle attributed to the candidate's intercession after their death is required. This miracle must be scientifically inexplicable.
  4. Canonization: A second verified miracle is needed for canonization, which officially declares the person a saint. This step assures the faithful that the saint is in heaven and can intercede for them.
The process is meticulous and can take years—or even centuries—to complete. Saints are celebrated as extraordinary models of holiness and dedication to God.
