The Path to Sainthood
Mother Seton is the first native-born American saint —and since 1975, more have journeyed on that very same path to sainthood!
Eleven Americans have been canonized and there are 87 more American Saints on their Way. Our list highlights 31 Americans who are Blessed, Venerable or a Servant of God. This small selection reminds us that saints come from all walks of life. We’re all called to holiness, and anyone can be a saint. That’s why we look with hope to the future to see who the next American saint will be.
