Our Class Saints
Each class at St Joseph's has a dedicated saint. A saint is a person just like you and me whom God gave special graces to in order for them to do special things. All the saints were holy men and women who followed God and were especially close to Him. Some saints are prophets, or messengers of God. Others are healers, doers of good deeds, or martyrs.
The saints are our friends in heaven!
Each class is able to take inspiration from their own class saint and talk to them in prayer.
The children ask their class saint to intercede for them each day at the end of prayers as they say
“Saint <name>, pray for us.”
