On-line Confirmation Saint Report

The tradition of taking a saint's name in Baptism is an ancient practice in the Church. The patron saint becomes a role model for the person, and an example of how the Gospel can be lived in a practical way. In many Catholic countries today, a saint's name day is celebrated instead of a birthday. Saints are heroes of the faith who lived their lives as examples of faith, hope, and love.
