Sharing the Saints

[catholic-rcia]

One of the things that stands out to me regarding Jesus is that he was the greatest salesman to ever to live. And what he was selling was the love of the Father for His Son passed onto His creation. He taught for 3 years and that was enough to secure his message for all time. Others then went out to proclaim his message to the entire world via the Most Holy Eucharist, the Mass. It was these missionaries that spread the light of Christ to the Americas by shedding their very own blood. They are real people with documented histories such as these.

Jesus’ message was strong enough to shed light on every corner of the entire earth. Right now the fire is burning strong in South America and in Africa.

If you have a favorite Saint please bring him or her to the present here, to those who do not yet know them. No one should ever go through this life of Christ without knowing a few. For if you say the word Christ today it is only because of the Mass that has proclaimed Christ death and gloriouse resurrection into the future. Issac Jouges brought Christ into my life through my Mohawk wife. I never thought I would care to know a Saint, I had no reason or why. But then I was lucky enough to open a very large door in my life and walk in.

Do you know of any saints that you would like to share with others here? Bring some light of Christ to this forum. Let’s speak about these who gave all to their Lord and God Jesus Christ.

God Bless

I think one of the most humble Blesseds was Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha. It was her that I chose for my Confirmation that just happened this Easter back in March. she lived a Christian and learned the Hail Mary at a young age, and then ran away from her own tribe to follow Jesus in the Eucharist and on the Cross. And when she died at 24, her disfigured face had turn beautiful within minutes, as if she had just entered into Heaven.

Lily of the Mohawks, pray for us!

Thank you, she also has found a place in my heart, she is the fruits of Issac Jogues and those that died with him while in captivety, the fruit for Christ. Mostly for others, because by knowing her she will point you to Christ.

“Tekakwitha is the name she was given by her people when she was born. In Mohawk, it means: “She puts things in order.” This was a good name for her because all her life, Tekakwitha put things where they should be. She put God first in her life.”
