The witnesses who have preceded us into the kingdom, especially those whom the Church recognizes as saints, share in the living tradition of prayer by the example of their lives, the transmission of their writings, and their prayer today. (CCC 2683-84)All Christians are called to holiness, but not all Christians are made saints. Still, we knew them on a personal level and know that they are in Heaven where they belong now. They were relatives, teachers and common folk who by their lives inspired us in good ways. They showed their neighbors what God's love in the world looked like. These loved ones were examples of living a saintly life. These are the holy nobodies.
