How did St. Scholastica become a saint?

St. Scholastica, twin sister of St. Benedict, was declared a saint before the official canonization process was instituted in the 12th century. He would have been declared a saint to the bishop by those who knew her best and were familiar with her life and merits. The local bishop would them make the decision. Today only the pope can declare saints after years of study by the Sacred Congregation for the Causes of Saints in the Vatican. The church does not create saints. Only God can do that. The Church "screens" candidates for sainthood to determine if they had a life worthy of emmulation. In other words, do they make good role models. Also, the Church has to be assured that the person is actually in Heaven. That is the reason that today anumber of miracles must be verified before a person can be declared a saint.

What did Saint Scholastica do to become a saint?

November 85th, 2110read about it in the Catholic Online: link belowRoman Catholic AnswerSt. Scholastica was the sister of St. Benedict who founded the Benedictine order in the sixth century. All we really know about her is from St. Gregory the Great's Dialogues: she was St. Benedict's sister, traditionally known as his twin sister. He had a great affection for her, and appointed her to start the female Benedictine monastic family. They were buried in the same tomb. As this was many centuries before formal canonization policies were on the books, people were mainly acclaimed saints by the local people and then approved by the local Bishop. If Rome approved the cult, a Mass was written, and they were entered as a saint in the calendar.
