List of Servants of God
Funerary inscription calling the deceased Maxima an Ancilla Christi (525 AD)
In the Roman Catholic Church's Latin rite, Servant of God is the style used for a person who has been posthumously declared "heroic in virtue" during the investigation and process leading to canonisation as a saint.[1]
The following is an incomplete list of people declared to be a Servant of God. The list is in alphabetical order by Christian name but, if necessary, by surname or the place or attribute part of the name.
