Sitting during prayer creates a posture of stillness and focus, allowing individuals to center their thoughts and connect more deeply with their spiritual practice. This physical position promotes relaxation, which can reduce distractions and enhance mindfulness, making it easier to enter a contemplative state. Additionally, sitting can symbolize humility and reverence, fostering a sense of respect for the act of prayer itself. Ultimately, it provides a stable environment conducive to reflection and connection with the divine.

Saints are believed to be divinely connected with God, like a direct line. So we pray to them to ask them to ask God to help us, or pray to God for us, we believe God can do some miracles, through the saints. For a Catholic, the Saints are very much alive and in heaven, and just as you would ask a friend to pray for you, you can ask the saints to pray for you as well. Catholics use the word "pray" in the traditional sense of the word, whereas most protestants use "pray" to be the same thing as worship. Catholics do NOT worship saints.
