Who they were

Brother Exupérien was a Brother of the Christian Schools who promoted a trade union of industry and commerce workers out of which the French Confederation of Christian Workers later grew, and died in Paris on 31 January 1905.

The miracles

No miracle has been approved. The decree on heroic virtues has been promulgated; a miracle would come next.

Why that counted as sanctity

His cause was opened in Paris in 1922; the Institute's own page on Lasallian holiness lists him as Venerable Brother Exupérien Mas.

The cause

Exupérien Mas (Adrien Mas) has been declared Venerable; the cause continues. Favours received, and offers of help, go to the postulation, the office that carries the cause forward: The cause of Exupérien Mas (Adrien Mas).

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