List of Servants of God
None
In the Catholic Church , Servant of God is the style used for a person who has been posthumously declared "heroic in virtue" during the investigation and process leading to canonisation as a saint . [1]
The term is used in the first of the four steps in the canonization process. The next step is being declared Venerable , upon a decree of heroism or martyrdom by the honored. That is followed by beatification , with the title of Blessed . After the confirmation of miracles resulting from the intercession of the honored, the final step is canonization , where the honored would receive the title of Saint .
