Why that counted as sanctity
The Slovenian bishops' conference backed the opening of her cause on 24 September 2018, Msgr Franci Petrič was appointed postulator in 2019, and on 23 November 2021 the Congregation for the Causes of Saints permitted the archdiocese of Ljubljana to begin the process, from which point she is officially called a Servant of God.
The cause
Magdalena Gornik 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 Magdalena Gornik.
