I am leaving for Sacred Heart Camp in Lake Tahoe in 2 days with my sons. I am one of 4 adult lay counselors along with 2 priests and a seminarian. There are about 65 boys aged 8-18, who are divided into 4 teams, each named after saints. There is St. Edmund Campion, St. Martin of Tours, St. Dominic and mine......St. John de Brebeuf. I know some about the first three. But nooooo, I get the saint I know least about. I need to have some knowledge of him to impart on the boys in my group. We are also going to make banners and do skits. Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Hi Brian,

This is a great site for searching about saints: http://www.catholic- forum.com/saints/indexsnt.htm. If you look up in the top right hand corner, you can search by topic or name.

Here is the info on St. John de Brebeuf that should get you started: St. John de Brebeuf. Sounds like a great event - I hope your camping trip is fun! God bless,
