The United States Catholic Conference of Bishops will be having their November plenary meetings on November 11 -14, 2024. At those meetings, they will discuss and take a vote of support on two sainthood causes: the cause of Servant of God Gertrude Barber and the yet open cause of Sister Annella Zervas. Under canon law, achieving support of the regional Catholic bishops conference is one of the requirements for a cause to advance. You can learn more about Servant of God Gertrude Barber on her page here on American Saints and Causes. A page for Sister Annella Zervas will be posted as soon as Bishop Cozzens officially opens the cause.
