Who are saints? They are "Flesh and Blood Human Beings"

| | Comments (0)
As Father Gabriel B. O'Donnell reminds, being a saint doesn't mean that you are divested of your own personality, to have intimacy with God doesn't mean you change who you are as a person. Domincan Father Gabriel O'Donnell is currently the academic dean at the Dominican House of Studies, Washington, DC.

Watch PBS Religion & Ethics Newsweekly which helps us to understand the role of saints today.

Father Gabriel speaks to the process of sainting a person based on shepherding the process for two Americans, Father Michael J. McGivney and Rose Hawthorne. See the "Sainthood Process."

Another piece is worth watching, too: "Path to Sainthood."
