By the way, just as a sort of info for anti-Catholic readers; Statues are nothing more than visual aids for prayer and meditation. A Catholic may pray to God in front of a statue, but never pray to one. To see the use of statues and images as a tool for prayer and meditation:

Exod 25:10-22; 1 Kings 6:23; Num 21:6-9; Col 1:15; Col 1:9; 1 John 1:1-2; Heb 11:1-12:1; Rev 6:9-10.

Thanks and may God Bless You all!

Dear "A Friend,"

Just to clarify. Not all who disagree with prayers to Saints are "anti-Catholic." I know some good people even on this forum who would disagree. Nonetheless they are our brothers and sisters in Christ.

However, I know that my disagreement with the issue was based on misunderstanding the doctrine. I am now converting to Catholic from Protestant, though.

When did I say that "all who disagree with prayers to Saints are anti- Catholic."

1-I was talking about "the use of statues and images as a tool for prayer and meditation"

2-"prayers to Saints" is not an item i posted in this very mesagge.

3-Aren't U an anti-Catholic? Relax!! as i mentioned before that was "just as a sort of info for anti-Catholic readers" So, that not includes U if U are not one of them.

4- Welcome home!

Thanks and may God Bless You all!

The statues are simbolic representations and you could have an intelectual vision like I have when one nigth I saw and statue, small glowing white, same size The Little Flower statue that I have. Before I was praying for sick people, for petitions and I fall sleep and them I wake up quitly. Telling me St. Theresita of the Little Baby Jesus. I'm here with you. Jesus & Mary, the angels and the Saints are with us all the way and up. They are great helpers. They pray for us.

Blesses. Ileana
