Saints

If you've looked at this blog before, you may have seen a posting or two about Saints. Although United Methodists don't see Saints in quite the same light as Catholics, they're still an important part of our heritage...

Every saint realized that when you are faced with something hard — suffering, injustice, a crisis point — you can either respond in a way that makes you feel closer to God, or in way that doesn’t. And they all chose the path that, to the best of their knowledge, would align them more closely with the divine. That’s why we remember them, and that’s why we honor them.

Here is a good article about talking to children about them...
