"I truly believe that I am only a go-between between the two of you and that it is really the saint "choosing" you! Why? So many people that I have assisted have emailed me again and again telling me of the connections, intercessions and even miracles that have occurred due to their spiritual guides! I have been overwhelmed and awed by all of this and am humbled and honored to have taken on this task. I always suggest that you take some time to research your saints so you get to know them better and then you will be able to recognize the connections and intercessions that you and your saint will share."

Lisa, did you read about what happened to me last year? I have NO doubt that the saint chooses us!!! :)
This year, St Margaret Queen of Scotland chose me. A holy mother of 8 who tamed her "ruffian" king husband. My kind of woman! LOL (Chief is and old soldier, but he's really not a ruffian and not because of my holiness!)
Yes, I did read about your experience last year, and it gave me goosebumps!! I would be interested to know about any connections you made with St. Thomas last year. This seems like a really great way to open ourselves up to different spiritual avenues, that we might not take on our own.
Very cool to get a queen!! My dear St. Benedict Joseph Labre was voluntarily homeless, poverty stricken, a misfit and had poor hygiene! BUT he was big on adoration and mortification....I think I know what I might be working on this year!
Happy New Year!
