A Note From Sr Emmanuel About Companion Saints For the Year:

Download and print out this list of Companion Saints.  Cut out each name, fold and place all the papers in a basket. Put the basket on the family altar. Then, with friends and family, prayer groups or parishes, after calling for the presence of the Holy Spirit, ask each participant to pick a paper at random. You can also pick extra papers for the persons you carry in your heart but who are not present physically. The tradition goes that it is the Saint who chooses you, not the other way around. The Saint wishes to spend a year closer to you, to talk to you, to help you… It is up to us then to learn more about the life, the writings of the Saint. As we pray the Saint everyday, he or she will help us from the Heavens, in all the little aspects of our lives. He or she is also praying for us.  With this little piece of paper, you are actually receiving a particular prayer mission.
