This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 144.96.123.29 (talk) at 23:46, 4 February 2016 (The permalink for "primates" sent the clicker of said link to the article for the order of animals instead of the kind of bishop, which is certainly what the intended page was. It was a simple mistake, and an easy fix.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

A pre-congregational saint is a Christian saint whose beatification and/or canonization occurred before the institution of the modern investigations performed by the Congregation for the Causes of Saints (i.e. pre-11th century). It designates those who were canonized by local bishops, primates, or patriarchs, often as a result of a local custom, veneration or devotion.[1]
