Who they were

In Catholic tradition, the Five Holy Wounds, also known as the Five Sacred Wounds or the Five Precious Wounds, are the five piercing wounds that Jesus Christ suffered during his crucifixion. The wounds have been the focus of particular devotions, especially in the late Middle Ages, and have often been reflected in church music and art.

The miracles

Cause open

A cause for canonisation has been opened, which is what Servant of God means. Heroic virtue has not yet been declared and no miracle has been examined.

Why that counted as sanctity

Limited information is available on this saint so far.

The cause

Mary Martha Chambon is named a Servant of God; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: The cause of Mary Martha Chambon: the official site.

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