Have you ever met a saint? Young people are familiar with televsion interviews, commentary on famous personalities and multi-media introductions to the everyday lives of Hollywood stars. But have they been properly introduced to the saints?
Here is your chance to present a saint. A parish patron is a good start or a name sake.
Gather a suitcase of items from your saint's every day life. Don't forget to collect objects that represent your saint's spirituality.
This is a great project for confirmation kids. Recruit volunteer who will study a favorite saint. Be sure you quiz your "saints" for accuracy. Arrange for visits to several classes or a "parish saint's festival".
