Saints

When we are baptized we become part of a much larger family. We are a people "set apart" by God to bring light to a darkened world. God calls us His saints!

Most of us tend to think of saints as holy and pious and see them with halos and upturned eyes...but true saints are much more accessible than that. They are men and women who live ordinary lives and struggle with ordinary problems. What makes them saints is a clear focus upon God and His people. Some saints lives may look quite different, but most a similar to our own. They are calling us to become like them. Be a light, be a saint!
