An Irish Monk

"The canonical investigation of Andersen’s healing will be the first such inquiry ever held in the history of the Vancouver archdiocese — founded in 1863 — and could lead to the canonization of the monk as a saint.

“In fact it will be the first time such an inquiry has been held in Western Canada,” said Horgan, pastor of St. Peter and Paul’s parish in Vancouver."


The healing (an understatement) took place just last year. The monk in question is Blessed Abbot Marmion. The "miracle" in question you just have to read to believe.
