Don't be concerned about how many letters you have after your name. Strive for only two letters at the beginning of your name. They are St.
~Mother Angelica
This world is a saint making machine. This is how God designed it. It's the only way to make sense of all the vanity...futility...pain and all of the senseless suffering in this world. It's to forge God's children to become saints. The crisis today in the Church is not politics...economics or national interest. It is the crisis of the lack of saints. If Christ is the sacrament of God and the Church is the sacrament of Christ...the saint is the living sacrament of what the Church is in its true identity. We must become a living sacrament in the world that convinces the world that Jesus Christ is alive within his body.

The word "saint" literally means "holy," and, in the New Testament, "saint" referred to all who believed in Jesus Christ and followed his teachings.
Everyone asks themselves the question: Who am I and why am I here...how do I find myself.
In holiness we find real harmony between our self and God. Holiness...is not some sort of self made perfection...rather...it is the union with the body of Christ. Anyone who gains new life this way finds himself and becomes holy.
