Decision on the opening of the case

Without anyone asking him, Mgr. Hervé GIRAUD is already taking the initiative in mid-September to begin the first steps towards the cause of beatification.

The news falls **like a bomb**. That the various signs made us understand that Elise is still alive in the parish, this has been clear for a some years; that it was necessary to **dare a cause of beatification** is a new sign. Only the bishop could launch the steps in this direction.

So we have to get **back to work**. There is no lack of motivation! Ten days later, on September 25, the report on the reputation of holiness is recorded. Before even having read the Mgr. GIRAUD **decides to continue**; he is convinced that Elise must be given the opportunity to let God know about her. How else to explain that a woman who died 51 years ago can be reborn from the ashes? The signs are too strong and too numerous to deny the fact.
