Who they were

Evans was a Utah-born convert from Mormonism, a wife and mother who wrote at length on what she called the Mystical Humanity of Christ under the direction of the Jesuit Frank Parrish.

The miracles

No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.

Why that counted as sanctity

The organisation that holds her writings states that she is a Servant of God and that her cause is under way in the diocese of Monterey, California; the Holy See's nihil obstat is dated 29 March 2012.

The cause

Cora Evans 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 Cora Evans.

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