We have saints from every walk of life in every age: rich and poor; young and old; all of them have lived their lives in different circumstances and some of them did the most ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
The universal call to holiness is not limited to either certain individuals or groups. Over the years, saints have arisen from different countries, different language groups and different walks of life. But all saints belong to One Big Universal Family – the family of God. So, as you read this book, look at it as a family album wherein we have all our brothers and sisters who have gone before us and who are in heaven.
This is a simple compilation of the most interesting and useful facts in the lives of saints. No doubt, the life story of each saint carries with it an extraordinary power to inspire us, to challenge us and to attract us to their heroic way of life – a life rooted in God, a life poured out in love and service to one’s fellow human beings.
God invites you too to become a saint. You can if you want to. Do you want to reach heaven and meet Jesus face to face? Do you want to meet all the saints who have gone before us and see the angels too? With God’s help, you can become a saint by doing God’s will, that is, loving God with all your heart and loving your neighbour as you love yourself.
