Plus I think you really want to figure out what you are going to be the patron saint of ahead of time. Otherwise you might get one of those ironic patronages the Church seems to love so much. Pick wisely because you will be doing it for eternity or else you might get put in charge of the lost and found like St. Anthony.
This passage inspired another blogger, Puff at Puff's Blog About Stuff, to start a meme:
What would your patronage be?
And then, I got tagged.
Here are the rules:
For this meme, you must name your patronage.
and then tag 5 other people who would like to play along.
Linking your answer to your nominator's post would make it easier to get your answers.
Since I'm a known rule-bender (non-doctrinal ones, at least), I'm changing the meme slightly. I'm asking you, faithful and friendly reader, to choose my patronage that will be assigned to me, upon the moment of my achieving sainthood. I'm much too humble to even consider what my own patronage would be, even more so regarding my impending certain sainthood...
Notice I said "friendly".
Leave your suggestions in the combox, and if you want to participate in the meme, have a go at it.
Oh - by the way - the following future saints have been tagged to complete the meme as written:
Joe at Defend Us In Battle
Erin at And Sometimes Tea
Adrienne at Adrienne's Corner
Sherry at Chocolate For Your Brain
Nod at Wynken, Blynken and Nod.
And in case you missed it, I said "friendly"...
