Thy kingdom come, thy will be done  on earth as it is in heaven  ... sicut in caelo et in terra  The saints were not picture perfect. But they were real men and women who loved Jesus in the midst of their struggles with sin and suffering. In the most difficult moments in history, these men and women were lights in the darkness, prophets of hope, and beacons of peace. Joyfully persevering through life's trials, they lived the Gospel in unique, fascinating, and inspiring ways.  The Daughters of St. Paul at Pauline Books and Media noticed that most books on the lives of the saints are paperback and do not have a presentation as timeless or as beautiful as we believe the lives of the saints deserve. For this reason, we decided to take on the monumental project to write, design, and illustrate a volume of 365 saints and blesseds.  Supported by the prayers of our sisters in convents and Pauline Books and Media bookstores around the world, over thirty of our sisters worked on all aspects of this timeless volume for over a decade. It's our hope that it will reflect the striking beauty of the saints' lives--a meeting of heaven and earth. Through the beautiful reflections and exquisite artwork, may you forge deeper bonds with these holy men and women in heaven who show us how to live in Christ. Let's become saints!

Our sisters are particularly known for publishing excellent Catholic saints' stories for adults and children. But we noticed that most books on the lives of the saints are paperback and do not have a presentation as timeless or as beautiful as we believe the lives of the saints deserve. For this reason, we decided to take on the monumental project to write, design, and illustrate a volume of 365 saints and blesseds. Our sisters worked on this project for over a decade. Supported by the prayers of our sisters in convents and Pauline Books and Media bookstores around the world, about thirty sisters worked on all aspects of this book. It's our hope that it will reflect the striking beauty of the saints' lives--a meeting of heaven and earth.Sr. Danielle Victoria Lussier, FSP drew original art for each of the 365 saints and blesseds in the book. She worked from paintings as well as photographs of the more modern saints and blesseds from all walks of life and countries around the world. The art on the cover and throughout the book emphasizes the union of heaven and earth that takes place in the lives of the saints through the grace of Baptism. It is our hope that the art in this book will draw readers into the mystery of grace building upon nature in the saints' lives. May it instill in you the confidence that God's plan is for you to be a saint too! "Do not forget to read spiritual books, especially the lives of the saints" --Saint Philip Neri "Be imitators of God, as beloved children, and live in love, as Christ loved us." --Saint Paul to the Ephesians 5:1 Thy kingdom come, thy will be done ... on earth as it is in heaven. ...sicut in caelo et in terra The lives of the saints and blesseds are proof that God's grace is real. Even in difficult moments in history, these men and women were lights in the darkness witnessing to God's
