    Catholic Saints Getty Images Introduction All Christians are called to be saints. Saints are persons in heaven (officially canonized or not), who lived heroically virtuous lives, offered their life for others, or were martyred for the faith, and who are worthy of imitation. In official Church procedures, there are three steps to sainthood: a candidate becomes "Venerable," then "Blessed" and then "Saint." Venerable is the title given to a deceased person recognized formally by the pope as having lived a heroically virtuous life or offered their life. To be beatified and recognized as a Blessed, one miracle acquired through the candidate's intercession is required in addition to recognition of heroic virtue or offering of life. Canonization requires a second miracle after beatification. The pope may waive these requirements. A miracle is not required prior to a martyr's beatification, but one is required before canonization. Canonization – the formal process by which Key Terms the Church declares a person to be a saint and Beatification– the second stage in the process worthy of universal veneration. of proclaiming a person a saint; occurs after a diocese or eparchy and the Congregation for Congregation for the Causes of Saints – a the Causes of Saints has conducted a rigorous department of the Roman Curia, established investigation into the person's life and writings originally as the Congregation of Rites by Pope to determine whether he or she demonstrates Sixtus V in 1588.

  • A Christmas Seal Rarity by Christer Brunström
    Cinderella Time: A Christmas Seal Rarity By Christer Brunström Christmas seals were first issued in Denmark in 1904. They were colourful charity labels sold in time for the Christ- mas mails in support of tuberculosis suf- ferers. A hundred-plus years ago, this was a dreaded disease which brought untold suffering to its victims. Many readers are undoubtedly familiar with a lady called Emily Bissell. She was instrumental in the introduction of the Christmas seal in the USA way back in 1907. When she learnt that a small hospital in Delaware needed at least $300 to be able to continue its treatment of TBC patients she remembered the Danish idea. She im- mediately went to work creating a design that included a red cross and the words Merry Christmas surrounded by ivy leaves. In all its simplicity it was a very handsome design. The seal was printed and sold by the Delaware section of the American Red Cross. Interest in the Christmas seal was very strong and sales were brisk. A sec- ond version including the words Happy New Year was also issued to further increase the sales after the Christmas holidays.
