Hello all and thank you in advance for your response.

I used to belong to a multi-level marketing like company. It is a terrible organization which hurts a lot of people. I left the organization years ago and now I monitor a chat group for those that used to be in it. It is a secular group that includes tips for moving on, past experiences of fellow members and information for concerned family members.

I would like to reccomend a saint to ask for intercession that deals with getting people to leave bad groups like mlms. As I said before, it is a secular site, but most likely some of the members are catholic and I think it would be nice to provide them this information.

Who is the appropriate Saint to ask for intercession for when praying that an evil organization fails, for the salvation of the individual members and that more people become aware of just how bad it is?

I can think of maybe St. Dominic or St Jude. What do you all think?

Wow. I’m not sure how to answer this, but you sure do have me curious as to what organization this is!
 
The group has many names. They are able to escape notoriety by setting up hundreds of independant dummy corporations that have no affiliation with each other on paper besides being suppliers and distributors of each other. But in practice they are a tightly knit group with a cult like mentality. Some of the most common names of this organization are Ds-max, Cydcor, Innovage, Smart Circle, Granton Marketing, Quantum, IPG, Aliron and Cobra. They are around the world and have been in business since the 1980’s.
 
Any are great, but try St. Paul (Saul from on the road to Damascus, who was originally against Christians) name became Paul and then St. Paul, the conversion is legendary. Then he help ed to convert many to realize what truth personified actually was in Christ. He had the gifts and wisdom to reach the hearts and minds of the common folk who needed guidiance.His letters are relevant today just as if they were written now. Read any of his letters.
 
Saint Matthew made an important career change, and held a party for his ex-associates to celebrate the change. Today is his feastday.
 
Try St Francis of Assisi, whose father wanted him to follow in the family’s successful business - instead he gave it up to live in poverty for love of Christ who himself was poor.
 
The first saint I thought of was St.Paul you could also pray to St.Francis of Assisi or St.Jude or St.Mathew or St.Mary Magadelene. Any of these people I am sure would intercede at help. I am sure there are many more that I can’t think of right now.:byzsoc:
 
Note that St Augustine gave up an erroneous teaching to return to the true Church.
 
I would recommend St. Teresa of Avila. In a nutshell, she “left” her original convent and helped to reform the Carmelite Rule. Her original convent wasn’t really a cloister in that the girls were vain, often missed Mass and LOTH, and many times had people visiting. In her reform, she went back to the more “conservative” rule, but also faced MUCH opposition along the way.
