Welcome to Daily Saints, where you’ll hear information about the saint of the day and hopefully be inspired to be a saint yourself. Information is from Franciscan Media’s Saint of the Day, a book edited by Leonard Foley, O.F.M. and revised by Pat McCloskey, O.F.M. I highly recommend this book as a personal guide to the lives of the saints if you don’t already own it. God bless, and let’s go be saints today.
