Patron Saints 2012


Lil Red

Recommended Posts

I have my PM saint, or well he is blessed... but I also did my own "saint draw" last night. I had fifteen different saints and devotions, picked one, and then I put the little piece of paper in an official looking envelope and at 12:00 am Sunday the 27, I will rip open that envelope and have my saint for the year!

Thank you so much lil red for doing this! I really like my, blessed-almost-a-saint-I-think-? Actually, can I just call him a saint for now? :)

Can I have one too Lil Red ? Elise, 21, law student. I'm sure the Holy Spirit knows what I need (or will need) much better than I do, let's see who I'll get.

Thanks. I was just worried I had missed it somewhere, because I've been gone all weekend. His feast is 2 days after my due date. I will be officially freaked out in a "Whoa the Holy Spirit is AMAZING!" kind of way if that is when Peanut arrives!

Hey I think you'd get a kick out of this Lil Red: there are three ways that James can be translated in spanish ... one is Santiago, and two are more modern. One of the two modern versions is the name of my fairly new spiritual director. How amesome is that!

Interesting that I get one of the sons of thunder as my patron saint. I've got to give this one more thought/prayer. He was also one of the intimate three (Peter/James/John).

Thanks Lil Red :)

(oh an addendum -- gosh St. James was the 1st of the apostles martyred, whose martyrdom is recorded in the Acts of the Apostles!)

If you would like a saint, message me with your name or if you are comfortable, post here. please tell me a little of yourself (if i don't already know you): student? discerning? oldest/youngest sibling? any worries about the coming year? etc....

Okie dokes. Here we go:

Bee. Senior at university. Convert. restarting discerning whether I am actually called to religious life or no. Worries: mi madre - she is muy crazy - and how she's going to handle me moving out/my Catholicness (she refuses to discuss.) Oldest of three sisters.

Thanks for drawing for my Red.
St. Bernadette! How razzle dazzle!

I thnk it's sort of funny though because this year pretty much all of the Saints/Blesseds that have been stalking me are from France. Lol. Another French person.

Edited to add:
The Lord works in mysterious ways. I just remembered that when I was enrolled in the Brown Scapular this year my priest also blessed me with Lourdes water, and my grandparents have a 2nd class relic of her in their house (and they kept asking me if I wanted it). Some things have happened in my prayer life in that room in their house where that relic is that have [i]really[/i] made me wonder if I [i]do[/i] have a vocation to religious life.
