Saint is a proper noun only if used as part of a title, such as Saint Vincent. Saint is not a proper noun if used in any other way. For example, if you wrote, "He's a saint," you would not capitalize saint. Below are some other examples of sentences in which "saint" would not be capitalized:

Many saints have visited the Vatican.

Catholics pray that saints will intercede with God for them.
