Girlfriends and Other Saints: Companions on My Journey of Faith

by Teresa Tomeo

Overview

With wit and wisdom, popular Catholic talk show host Teresa Tomeo shares personal stories about saints-both her "girlfriend" saints, as well as several male saints. She shows us that the saints are alive and well in heaven and are always ready to listen to us and intercede on our behalf. As she relates how these heroes of the faith have worked in her own life, we are encouraged to go to the saints with our own needs. They are our friends and will never betray us or "unfriend" us!Among the saints Teresa shares about are the Blessed Mother, St. Catherine of Siena, St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, St. Teresa of Avila, and St. John Paul II.
