The miracle that led to St. Óscar Romero’s canonization as a saint was the medically inexplicable healing of a terminally ill Salvadoran woman whose husband had been seeking Romero’s intercession. Romero was canonized by Pope Francis on October 14, 2018. Because Romero died as a martyr, his candidacy for sainthood required the verification of only one miracle, rather than the standard two.
