Catholics: Your Favorite Saints?

[Galadriel]

Do you have any favorite saints or those to whom you're particularly devoted?

Mine include:

The Blessed Virgin Mary ('nuff said )
St. Therese (My patron saint. I also do a novena each year asking for her intercession for a particular cause)
St. Pius X (Benefited from his intercession, also a wonderful inspiration)
St. Gemma Galgani (Very simple yet godly; she was a mystic.)
St. Michael the Archangel (defender of the Church. I love saying the St. Michael Prayer)
The soon-to-be St. John Paul II

St. Rose of Lima. Even as a child I was taken by her story and more recently have found it interesting how much I still resonate with her writings.

The BVM
St. Jude
St. Martin de Porres
St. Kateri Tekakwitha

Our Lady certainly is no regular saint, as she is co-redemptrix with Jesus and the Mediatrix of all graces given to man. But with her "yes" to the H-ly Spirit and we have been redeemed...with that simple "yes," look at what G-d gave her in heaven. Sigh....if we'd say "yes," we don't know the beauties awaiting us. Our L-rd is certainly generous and all to His glory.

Awesome thread!

St Therese de Lisieux
St. Gianna Beretta Molla
St. Apollonia (virgin martyr who jumped into the fire rather than deny Christ)
St. Michael the Archangel
St. Josephine Bakita
St. Bernadette Soubirous
Venerable Fulton Sheen

St. Kateri is awesome! So is Josephine Bakita and Fulton Sheen.
