2012
A Year of Prayer and Healing
The entire Congregation agreed to continue offering prayers, fasting and works of charity to further promote the Cause of Mother Ignacia’s beatification. The Congregation for the Causes of Saints in Rome, requires a single proof of healing through divine intervention. The presumed miracle needs further examination and requires the approval of many experts, medical and technical, whose duty is to ascertain that the matter in question is scientifically inexplicable. Since the process of gathering medical records is indispensable to prove the veracity of a miraculous cure attributed to Mother Ignacia, more prayers and sacrifices are being offered by the Congregation for guidance toward the effective pursuit of the Cause. Hence, Mother General and Council have declared 2012 as the Year of Prayer for Healing. Praying the rosary and the 30-minute vigil before the Blessed Sacrament every 12th day of the month at 12:00 noon have been scheduled, with the intention of asking God’s grace for his miraculous work of healing to further the Cause of Mother Ignacia’s beatification.
