Jan Schneider
Breslau priest who founded the Sisters of Mary Immaculate
Who they were
Schneider was a priest of Breslau, now Wrocław, who organised help for young women coming to the city for work and founded the Congregation of the Sisters of Mary Immaculate.
The miracles
No miracle has been approved. The cause is at its first stage.
Why that counted as sanctity
The Polish Catholic news agency KAI reports sisters from Poland, Germany, Italy and Tanzania gathering at the grave of the Servant of God Fr Jan Schneider to open a Schneider Year in Wrocław in December 2013; the Holy See's nihil obstat for his cause is dated 13 July 2001.
The cause
The cause continues. No postulation address is published here yet. Favours received through this person’s intercession, and offers of help, are best sent to the religious order or congregation they belonged to, or to the diocese where the cause was opened; either will pass them to the postulation.
