St. Agnes was a young Christian girl who, according to tradition, was martyred for her faith in Rome during the reign of Emperor Diocletian by refusing to marry a pagan man and vowing herself to Christ. Her steadfast devotion and martyrdom led to her being venerated as a saint in the Christian tradition.

What were the two miracles that St Agnes performed to make her a saint?

St. Agnes is a "pre-congregational" saint. She was declared a saint before the Sacred Congregation for the Causes of Saints came into being that required Rome to examine all evidence before a person could be declared a saint. Except for unproven legends, there is no written record of any miracles that could be attributed to the intercession of St. Agnes. When Agnes was proclaimed a saint, there was no official requirement that miracles be proven.
