Mary MacKillop performed two miracles of reversing a woman's cancer and another woman's leukemia when they were both going to sadly die with nothing to save them.
In 1925, the Mother Superior of the Sisters of St Joseph, Mother Laurence, began the process to have MacKillop declared a saint and Michael Kelly Archbishop of Sydney, established a tribunal to carry the process forward. Pope Benedict declared her a saint at her canonization on October 17, 2010.
