Message from Rome

The international Carmelite Order published a press release about a next step in the process of canonization of Blessed Titus Brandsma.  On May 25, 2021 the Congress of Theological Consultors recognized the miracle attributed to the intercession of Blessed Titus Brandsma, relating to the scientifically inexplicable healing of Fr. Michael Driscoll, O. Carm.

This will allow the Cause to be submitted to the judgment of the Ordinary Session of the Cardinals and Bishops, members of the Congregation. In the event of a positive outcome, the Prefect of the Congregation will then submit the conclusions of the Ordinary Session of the Cardinals and Bishops for the approval of the pope. Finally, the pope will convene the Ordinary Consistory in which the canonization of the Blessed will be officially announced.

You can find the press release here (as pdf) and on the CITOC website.
