To become a saint in the Catholic Church, one must lead a life of exceptional holiness, perform miracles (usually posthumously), and be officially recognized by the Church through a process called canonization. This process involves thorough investigation and approval by the Vatican.

Why did the Church decide to make Saint Caroline a saint?

The Catholic Church and most christians believe that purity is a virtue. Some Christians take purity pledges, like the Jonas brothers, who are not Catholic but are Christian. To be abstinent or to resist rape is considered virtuous. To encourage a respect for purity, the Catholic Church has canonized some young girls who resisted forcible intercourse. Maria Goretti was killed by an attacker and canonized around 1950. Her attacker, who had gone to prison and repented his sin/crime, was present in Rome for her canonization. Caroline was raped and killed by a Russian soldier in 1914. She is about to be canonized a saint for the same reason.
