C Frances Posted June 8, 2006 Author Share Posted June 8, 2006 Oooh, I [u]LOVE [/u] Padre Pio...he's one of my Mom's favorites, too. Such a holy and wonderful man. It bothers me so much when non-Catholics accuse real stigmatists and servants of Christ like Padre Pio of "faking", et cetera ...I guess some people just can't recognize true holiness when they see it.

I guess you could call me a thread-killer, because, when I do post defending the Faith and its elements, a lot of times, people completely ignore my posts and the thread dies. I have a feeling the saints in Heaven are praying over-time for those of us still on Earth! And, of course, you're right...Padre Pio only needs the applause of nail-scarred hands. :applause: He's received his reward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heavenseeker Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 if blesid Kateri Tekakwitha and JP2 become saints along with Mother Terisa then the three of them will be my favorite saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel bad for trying to evangelize because I just loose my patience and start being mean, but then I apologize, and then I confuse people. lol!! I always go into threads about non catholics or accusations about the church, I go in too hopefully that I'm gonna set them straight and they don't take anything I say under consideration they just reply with their beliefs and call me ignorant. I don't mind the insults but it really gets to me when they doubt Him or His presence in the blessed Sacrament, I can't just pass it up. lol. But when you go in those boards you aren't just killing them, despite their silence to you they are still hearing it and you are doing your part in exposing them to the truth, then we just got to pray for them!! And oh yes the Saints love us and love to help St. Therese procliamed that when she said her work will not end when she enters heaven but she will send forth a shower of roses, aka her work in Heaven as well [quote name='*Totus Tuus*' post='1000933' date='Jun 8 2006, 08:02 PM'] I can see how it might be difficult to choose!...St. Francis and St. Therese are very special to me because they are my patron saints.

[/quote] oo those are SUCH wonderful souls!!!! You don't have to not include them in your favorite saints, you should always pray to them! JP2 and Mother Teresa are amazing, Tekakwitha is of course but I don't know very much about her, just from one book I read on her. The point is they are all so wonderful!

[/quote] It is kind of hard to call them my favorite saints if they are not saints yet. JP2 and Mother Teresa everyone knows enough about and why they should be saints. Katiri Tekakwitha i know about because the church camp that i went to the past 5 years is named after her. They always tell us cool information about her there, I was going to work there this summer but applied too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
