Saints Quiz: Which one are you?

by Loyola Press on September 10, 2009

Which Saint Are You?The saints are our spiritual companions. They pray for us from heaven, inspire us, and are our role models. Yet the saints were ordinary people just like us—at times proud, hot-tempered, at fault, and tempted by sin. Each saint decided to be holy by accepting God’s will. We, too, can be like the saints if we choose to respond to God’s calling.
 
Loyola Press offers you this quiz to find a saint whose life resembles your own. You may learn something new; you may even find a new favorite saint to guide you on your spiritual journey.  This quiz is inspired by the new release Voices of the Saints by Bert Ghezzi.
