Servant of God - Servant of God is the title given to a person of the Roman Catholic Church upon whom a pope has opened a cause of sainthood. It is the first step in the process leading to being declared Venerable upon a decree of heroicity or martyrdom and then honored in beatification with the title of Blessed after the confirmation of miracles attributed to the honoree.

Marie-Marguerite d'Youville - Saint Marie-Marguerite d'Youville (née Marie-Marguerite Dufrost de Lajemmerais) (15 October 1701 – 23 December 1771), foundress of the Grey Nuns or Sisters of Charity, was the first Canadian-born person to be elevated to sainthood.

Canonization - Canonization is the process of declaring someone a saint and involves proving that a candidate has lived in such a way that he or she is worthy of sainthood. It is currently practised by the Roman Catholic Church (including Churches of the Eastern Rites), by the Eastern Orthodox Church, and by the Oriental Orthodox Churches.
