I'm not religious, but I've always had a fondness for Joan of Arc. I love her story, and I share a lot of similarities with her. I liked her when I was little, but there was a big gap where I never thought about her at all. But for some unknown reason, I've taken a sudden, massive interest in her again, and can't stop thinking about her. So I decided to do a little research about saints and the catholic religion. I even went so far as to start reading the Bible out of plain curiosity. And I always thought that would be the last thing I'd do.
So I was wondering. How do YOU choose your saints? Do you have more than one? Through some rather odd dreams and contact with the spirit world, I was lead to St. Augustine of Hippo, the Blessed Damien Yamiki, and St. Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows. I can understand why Joan and Augustine would be my saints, but not so much the other two.
So if anyone has any suggestions for choosing saints, that would be helpful.
