The process for the Canonisation of Mary Potter was begun in 1942 and it is a lengthy process.

Mary Potter’s legacy and her wholehearted commitment to God were recognized by Pope John Paul II on 8 February 1988 when he declared Mary Potter “Venerable”.  This declaration demonstrated the Church’s validation of Mary Potter’s saintly life and following a thorough examination and acceptance of her extensive spiritual writings she was declared Venerable.

Before Mary Potter can be Canonized, it is necessary that a miracle brought about through her intercession be examined and certified by Vatican physicians.
