Can Ordinary People Really Become Saints?

Core Catholic Doctrine1:33

Description

Can an ordinary Catholic really become a saint? Yes. Through Baptism, every Christian is called to holiness. Sainthood is not primarily about fame, extraordinary visions, or miracles. It is about loving God, cooperating with His grace, receiving the Sacraments, praying faithfully, and learning to love others. The Mass, the Holy Eucharist, Confession, Sacred Scripture, devotions, and the example of the saints all help us grow in holiness. And sometimes the most difficult people in our lives become the very means God uses to teach us patience, humility, forgiveness, and charity. God is calling you to holiness. Begin today.
