Roman Catholic AnswerThere is no Saint Marissa as such, so no, she is not the patron saint of dance, or anything else. One could say that the name was a form of Maria which is Mary, the Mother of God. But, again, the Blessed Virgin Mary is not the patron saint of dance.
Well honey, there ain't no Saint Grant in the Catholic church. You must be thinking of someone else, maybe Saint Francis of Assisi or Saint Anthony of Padua. But Grant? Nope, not on the list. Next time, try asking about someone who actually made the cut.
No. In fact, NO man can be called a 'saint' while on this earth. Only God knows who he will redeam.Roman Catholic AnswerNo, there have been some notorious popes, who are very obviously not saint material. That being said, saints are people who are in heaven. The Church officially acknowledges all of the popes from the early centuries as saints. The first pope who was not declared a saint, was Pope Anastasius II (496-498). The last pope to be canonized was Pope Saint Pius X, who died right as World War I was starting. Pope John XXIII has been beatified, and there is a movement to have Pope John Paul II, of happy memory, canonized.
We know little about the life of Joseph except for a few brief statements in the New Testament and from tradition. He is thought to have been already of an advanced age when he took Mary as his wife. He was a carpenter by trade and, possibly, a stone mason as well and that is how he supported Mary and Jesus. He apparently died before Our Lord began his public ministry. Nothing else is known.
If you are referring to the Joseph that was married to Mary, he had a three-fold decision. 1. Denounce Mary as adulator and she would have been stoned. 2. Move somewhere else and quietly divorce her. 3. Stay married to her and become the earthly father to Jesus. He chose 3.
no
A: Asuming Saint Winifred (or Winefride) was a real, historical person, she was born around the year 600 in Holywell, Wales, although almost everything else believed about her is pure legend.
"Canoized" appears to be a misspelling or a confusion with the term "canonized," which refers to the official declaration by a religious authority that a deceased person is recognized as a saint. Canonization typically involves a formal process that includes an investigation into the person's life, virtues, and miracles attributed to them. If "canoized" refers to something else, please provide additional context for clarification.
This question is preposterous as Jesus had no affair with any woman, Mary or anyone else.
Very little is known about St. Anne and what little we know is through tradition as there is nothing in canonical scriptures about her. She was the wife of St. Joachim and the mother of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The names Anne and Joachim come from the apocryphal Gospel of James.
Saint Lucia has very few languages. Most people speak English and/or Saint Lucia Creole French. Nothing else.
I'm not sure
