How do you know if you have a patron Saint if you’re in RCIA?
Wow! mine too! I actually haven’t ever met anyone else with her as their saint!My patron saint is Rose of Lima .
I feel that she chose me first.
Meggie, I was delighted to hear about your connection with Kateri!! Thank you for sharing.Kateri is not my patron Saint but she is very dear to me.
You could check out the Patron Saints Index to try to find one with whom you feel some connection. Pray to “the unknown saint who loves me”, as someone said above. And ask the Holy Spirit for direction. God will show it to you in His good timing, at the moment you need to know.How do you know if you have a patron Saint if you’re in RCIA?
Here is a page on St. Anne Line. She sounds like quite a heroic woman. I hope it helps.St. Anne Line is my patron saint.
Didn’t you make Confirmation ? we get to pick more names when we are Confirmed, just wondering.I am an adult convert - and at my confirmation, I did not get a “saint name”. I don’t know why not, but I feel kind of sad about it.
So, sometimes I pray to “the saint who loves me” to help me, pray for me, guard me.
I don’t know what else to do?
This brings up an interesting question. Can I use the saint that I adopted now to be used for Confirmation in the future?Didn’t you make Confirmation ? we get to pick more names when we are Confirmed, just wondering.
Ok I’m working from memory here, as it’s been over 35 years or more since I was confirmed.This brings up an interesting question. Can I use the saint that I adopted now to be used for Confirmation in the future?
Dear Savone, you could check out the Patron Saints Index. This site gives a nearly exhaustive list of Saints, and descriptions about each of them. You can browse by the first name of the Saint or by “topic”, which searches the patronages assigned to each Saint. eg. one of the patron Saints of lost articles is St. Anthony of Padua.Is there a consice online reference that could be used to determine if you’ve been given a name of a saint? Thanks.
