Why does the Church encourage us to have a patron saint? In this episode, Frs. Sean and Jacob explore the meaning of patronage in the communion of saints. The saints are living members of Christ’s Body who intercede for us, accompany us, and model the many ways holiness can be lived. The conversation reflects on why particular saints seem to “choose us,” how patron saints help shape our Christian vocation, and why asking for their prayers deepens rather than distracts from our relationship with Christ. They especially highlight the witness of St. Pier Giorgio Frassati, St. Maximilian Kolbe, and St. John Paul II, showing how their unique lives continue to inspire the Church today.
