As a poor old Bible Belt protestant, I have never given much thought or focus to saints. (But do not make light of those who do)

However, each Masonic lodge is dedicated to the Holy Saints John (the Evangelist and the Baptist) and some still observe their feast days.

Now as far as "our" JTB goes - well, could you define Saintly again?

I believe the topic was Saints . . . not "Martyrs".

I'm not Catholic, don't pray to saints, but I do admire them greatly and think in the little research I did on saints when I was "floating" trying to decide what I believed that my favorite was also St Francis. He's certainly one of the few that I can name and name what is was (patron saint of animals).

St. Florian Patron saint of Firefighters. I'm the daughter/granddaughter/neice of countless firefighters. Thankfully they have all been kept safe in the line of duty.

I pray to many different saints fairly often. My favorites are St. Bernadette of Lourdes and St. John Neumann.

bumcat-Mother Cabrini is indeed a Saint-her shrine is near my home.
My personal favorites are Bernadette of Lourdes and Jeanne d'Arc
Since my DH is a field artilleryman we also honor St Barbara who is the patroness of stoner hurlers, archers, and cannoneers.

I've been known to pray to St. Francis for my pup. And with DS in St. Joan of Arc school, she's probably my favorite.

 

[Boston Tea Party]

In honor of All Saints Day.

Roger Moore - the original Saint!









Ooops... wrong saint huh?

St. Martha for me, but when I am praying for my children it is usually St. Gabriel

St. Therese of Lisieux, the little flower. Her book, Story of a Soul is wonderful and her "little way" has always been inspiring........
