  • Matt Talbot is not a blessed. He is "Venerable".

  • St Polycarp is my favorite Saint:

    "Eighty and six years I have served Him, and He has done me no wrong,  how then can I blaspheme my King and Saviour? Bring forth what thou wilt."

    Polycarp was burned at the stake for refusing to burn incense to the Roman Emperor.

  • So far I'm the only St. Simeon Stylites devotee.  How anyone can think of him without chuckling, and becoming a devotee, is beyond me.
    What return shall I make to the Lord for all the things that He hath given unto me?

    I am a little puzzled by your calling Padre Pio "saint" since he was canonized by an anti-pope, as far as you are concerned.  
    Stir up within Thy Church, we beseech Thee, O Lord, the Spirit with which blessed Josaphat, Thy Martyr and Bishop, was filled, when he laid down his life for his sheep: so that, through his intercession, we too may be moved and strengthen by the same Spir

  • Correct, it is Venerable Matt Talbot, and I thank him everyday for getting me off drink, which is almost 10 years now.
