Saint Mark is traditionally believed to have performed miracles such as healing the sick, casting out demons, and raising the dead. One of the most well-known miracles attributed to him is when he healed a cobbler's hand that had been injured while working. Additionally, he is said to have miraculously provided abundant food to feed a group of hungry people.
Mark the Evangelist (�רק�ס, Greek: �ά�κο�) (1st century) is traditionally believed to be the author of the Gospel of Mark and a companion of Peter. He also accompanied Paul and Barnabas in Paul's first journey. After a sharp dispute, Barnabas separated from Paul, taking Mark to Cyprus (Acts 15:36-40). Later Paul calls upon the services of Mark, the cousin of Barnabas, and Mark is named as Paul's fellow worker. He is also believed to be the first patriarch of Alexandria by both the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Coptic Orthodox Church, and thus the founder of Christianity in Africa. His evangelistic symbol is the winged lion.
In Egypt, Mark the Evangelist is said to have performed many miracles, and established a church there (Coptic Orthodox Church), appointing a bishop (Anianus of Alexandria), three priests, and seven deacons.When Mark returned to Alexandria, the people there are said to have resented his efforts to turn them away from the worship of their traditional Egyptian gods. In AD 68 they killed him, and tried to burn his body. Afterwards, the Christians in Alexandria removed his unburned body from the ashes, wrapped it and then buried it in the easterly part of the church they had built.
In order to be designated a saint in the Catholic church there had to be miracles attributed to the saint.
There are many virtues that men are called upon to have, depending on what God has given to them. Some of them are universal, the theological virtues are all infused into us at our Baptism, and reinforced in Confirmation: faith, hope, and love. But the two virtues that are necessary for everyone to pray for, and to practice, without which we cannot be saved, are humility and obedience (which would include prayer). As St. Matthew is a saint, and followed Our Blessed Lord during his life, he practiced all these virtues.
Several miracles have been attributed to St. Mark. Among them are: * The death of a lion and lioness * Healing the fingers of Anianus * Miracles in five Western cities * His vision in jail * A fire that was extinguished preventing his body from burning * Saving Venice.

Thomas, also known as Didymus, was one of the more obscure disciples of Jesus in the synoptic gospels. He becomes more evident in John, where he is the doubting disciple, especially in the second visit of the risen Jesus to the disciples at a meal. Elaine Pagels believes this portrayal suggests that those early second-century Christians who considered themselves followers of Thomas had become influential, such that the author of John sought to minimise his authority. On Pagel's view, what we read about Thomas in John's Gospel is not historically true.
The name, Thomas, means 'Twin', and the apocryphal Acts of Thomas say that Judas Thomas was the twin brother of Jesus and is sometimes mistaken for Jesus, even deceiving the Devil. By means of this close relationship, the followers claimed authority for the writings attributed to Thomas and claimed primacy over other Christians.
Christian communities in India traditionally believe that Thomas the apostle came to India to preach there; certainly here is evidence of Christianity in India by around the second century. Some Christian communities in India believe that Thomas came by sea from Arabia and landed on the Malabar coast. Alternatively, they have shown that he came overland, down from the north. The oldest literary account of the Apostle's missionary work in India is found in Acts of Thomas, which may have been the original source of the Indian traditions. There are several tradition about the death of the apostle Thomas, the most popular of which is that he died in India.
The most reliable information on Thomas is found in the gospels, but on Pagel's view the information in John must be discounted as a literary creation. In fact, there is no real evidence that he ever existed.
The requirement for miracles is a more modern addition to the canonization process. Mark was not canonized, he would have been declared a saint by the early Christian community based on his life of heroic virtue and his martyrdom. If Mark was ever responsible for any miracles, we have no record of them. The canonization process did not become instituted until about the 12th century. Now only the pope can declare saints. If St. Mark did perform any miracles we know of nothing about him outside The Bible.
He wrote one of the 4 canoninical gospels.

St. Abigail is not a widely recognized saint in Christian tradition. There are no specific miracles attributed to her. She is sometimes honored as a patron saint of bees and beekeepers, but she is not officially canonized in the Catholic Church.
From the Bible we know little about Joseph. There is no mention of miracles that were performed through him and there is nothing in tradition that tells us about miracles attributed to him. However, I am sure there are countless little miracles and favors that have been granted through the intercession of St. Joseph when people have prayed to him over the years. At the time Joseph was declared a saint there was no requirement for post mortem miracles to be proven. He was simply declared a saint by the early Christians.
Saint Matilda of Hackeborn was known for experiencing visions and ecstasies, as well as for her piety and devotion to God, but there are no specific miracles attributed to her. She is revered for her spiritual writings and her example of a deeply holy and prayerful life.

Saint Ezekiel is known for performing three miracles: bringing a dead man back to life after being dead for 3 days, restoring a blind man's sight, and curing a paralyzed man by giving him the ability to walk again. These miracles are attributed to Saint Ezekiel's powerful faith and connection to God.
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.
Monica is the patron saint of several things but not of miracles. There is no patron saint of miracles.
Saint Sophia lived during Roman times. Unfortunately, very little information has survived about the early saints, simply because the documents have deteriorated over time. We know she is a saint, and to become recognized as a saint she must have met several requirements, including miracles. The lack of documentation does not mean she has no miracles attributed to her, it just means none of the documentation has survived.
According to the Patron Saints Index, there is no patron saint of miracles.
