St. Bernadette of Lourdes and Sr. Lucia of Fatima, just to name two, received private apparitions of Our Lady, which were later examined and approved by the Church.

A modern example is Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati, who was a lay university student and, in a natural way, strived for holiness within his own social context. He had a tremendous love for the people around him, looking after his friends and caring for the poor. Fr. Gehringer points out the beginning of sanctification starts by being in the state of grace.
