Top Ten Saints in the Church

[Cam42]

I think that we have to look to the Apostles. They are the first bishops.

Peter to Matthias. After that, we look to Paul.

Beyond that and in her own very special category, we look to Mary.

So, I don't think that it is 10, but rather 14. The order is not important, although, I look to Peter and Mary first, and Paul et. al. after that.

[Fidei Defensor]

Well, If Pope JP ever gets sainthood, then he should be up there with some of them

[zabbazooey]

I wholeheartedly agree fidei

[SRMartin15]

I am new to the faith and have yet officialy been converted into the faith so my knowledge of the saints is very slim. Im looking forward to learning more about them as the yr progresses. I hope to know quite a bit before im confirmed on Easter

God Bless,
