Why that counted as sanctity

Limited information is available on this saint so far.

The cause

Jean Fromental Cayroche has been declared Venerable; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: De La Salle Brothers of France: the cause of Jean Fromental Cayroche.

A miracle approved by the Holy See is needed for the next step. Reporting one begins with the postulation.
