Our Patron Saints

Among the many books about Saints and Patron Saints few address the notion of saintly traditions. This book presents some of the basic traditions with regard to patron saints, both old world and new world traditions. It is imperative to see that venerating holy women and men is based on a tradition rooted in biblical times. Even before the birth of Christ the people of the Old Testament believed that holy ones already enjoyed eternal life in heaven. This presentation also focuses on patron saints, those holy men and women who have served as intercessors and, above all, as spiritual friends to people throughout history. Visions, images and representations of patron saints are explained in this book as well. The appendices provide not only a listing of patron saints relevant for the twenty-first century but also a listing of spiritual needs for which patron saints have become known.
