Did I just look up whether porcupines have a patron saint? Sure did (apparently all the animals just get St. Francis, HOWEVER I did find a reference to St. Jerome as the “porcupine saint” because he could be a bit prickly 😆).
So beautiful & fascinating - I knew nothing about St. Sabastian but now must keep digging for more!
The gory details really add a lot, don't they?! For St. Bartholomew, we made woven leather bracelets. 😂 I feel like these hagiographies don't shy away from the horrors in life - but take them and redeem them, since, as you so beautifully said, it's not the end of their story.
Finally being able to forgive someone is one of the best feelings in the world!

You have a true talent for writing devotionals, love it !
We just read the entry for Saint Sebastian in the Saint a Day book!
