I have had the best time learning all about our wonderful family of Catholic saints in Heaven since joining the fold. I can never do anything halfway, so I have a gi-normous stack of catholic books, a lovely album full of holy cards both new and vintage I have been collecting....

a lovely St Therese tote bag I received as a Christmas gift from my poor befuddled non-practicing Jewish hubby, whom I carefully took to the local Catholic Store, helpfully "suggested" a few things, and turned him loose......

Cute, huh?

And what I can clearly see is going to be my new obsession, an ETSY website devoted to the sale of the most adorable felt handmade saint dolls you ever saw!

This lady has EVERY saint doll you can imagine and then some. I can't wait to order my patron, St Dymphna, and St Francis will be right behind her.
I love the idea of having a family in Heaven as well as here on earth, that is holding us up in prayer and helping us in our faith.
Anyone care to share who their favorite/patron saints are and why?
