Who they were

Kuśniak was a priest of the Congregation of the Oratory of St Philip Neri at Gostyń and its superior for 27 years, known for supporting the poor.

The miracles

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

Why that counted as sanctity

Santi e Beati lists him as a Servant of God; the informative process was opened in the archdiocese of Poznań in 1968.

The cause

Wawrzyniec Kuśniak 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 Wawrzyniec Kuśniak.

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