Sainthood Cause Advances for Ohio Mystic Rhoda Wise
The cause for sainthood of Rhoda Wise, an Ohio housewife and mystic, has progressed with the submission of her 'positio' to the Vatican's Dicastery for the Causes of Saints. Wise, known for her healing gifts and stigmata, was declared a servant of God in 2017. Her life, marked by visions and miraculous healings, is under review by Vatican commissions to determine her potential declaration as venerable. Wise's story includes significant events such as her conversion to Catholicism and her influence on Mother Angelica, founder of EWTN.
