Saints ~ will be done in class

According to your book (and I’ve talked about this before) being holy does NOT mean being perfect. Rather, sanctity means that one is willing to be shaped by God; one recognizes, accepts, and lives authentically God’s call. Another common misconception is the assumption that Catholics worship the saints. We do not. We venerate them, looking up to them as role models, serving as example and encouragement. When we pray “to” the saints, it’s not because we think they can do it; we are simply asking them to intercede on our behalf. We do that every day in here, when we take prayer requests, and ask others to pray for us.

The whole idea of “patron saints” became very popular during the Middle Ages. Surf through the VERY extensive “Patronage List” on this extremely comprehensive listing of saints (know that there might be some minor glitches on this site as they’re updating it – just let me know & I can help you out), and find three patron saints of unusual things that you didn’t know had patron saints. Write who, what they’re the patron of, and, if there’s anything odd and/or freakish about them (like St. Cecilia’s living for another three days after her botched beheading!), write that, too!
