Specify who, if not already done in the poll.
 
The problem I have is that all of the saints I am drawn to are male. It’s my understand that since I am a woman I’ll need a female saint. So, I’m still searching for one that appeals to me…
 
I’m also still trying to decide. I have until the end of the year to do so, for Confirmation.

Im between St. Joseph and St. Jerome. Both have been extremely kind to me since I came back to the Church. Both help me with different purposes…

It’s heartbreaking to make such a decision : /
 
For anybody who loves Mary, she’s not really on the same level as the rest of the saints, she’s higher up…

so it’s a bit of an unfair poll, Mary is often going to be Number One.

I always see it as
  1. Mary
  2. Joseph
  3. Everybody else
 
Indeed. I’m aware that she is probably going to be a top patroness.
 
I believe it’s fair to say that the Blessed Virgin is hors concours…
My main patron saint is Saint Augustine.

Well she is the patroness of the las islas filipinas and a lot of the people here have a VERY strong devotion to her
 
Maximilian Kolbe (Confirmation Saint, shares a lay name with me)
Bl. Jerzy Populesko
JP2
Faustina
Aquinas
 
If I could be visited by a Saint here on earth, it would be him. His humility, love of the poor, sinners, poverty, suffering by spending hours in the Confessional. I would recommend Cure d’Ars by Abbe Francois Trochu.
