商品簡介
When holy men and women die and proceed into eternal glory, their power of intercession increases as they become perfect and more pleasing to God. In Heaven, the saints partake in the priestly role of Christ, mediating between humankind and God, praying for people and asking for forgiveness on their behalf.When we honour the saints, we give glory to God, who sanctified them and worked (nay, works) wonders in them. These holy souls continue to intercede for devotees, obtaining countless favours for them every day.Depending mostly on events during their lives, saints are often ascribed the special patronage of particular causes and subjects. Thus, there are patron saints for countries, professions, diseases and infirmities, states of life, and other situations.There is St. Anthony for lost things, St. Jude for hopeless cases, St. Theresa for those suffering from Tuberculosis, St. Monica for troubled mothers, and so on.This treasury of prayers and novenas to saints provides a handy resource for Catholics who seek the intercession of saints and the intervention of God in their various situations. Praying With The Saints aims to help Christians draw closer to God through His saints.
