This
lesson deepened your child's understanding of what it
means to be a saint. A saint is someone recognized by
the Church for living a holy life. The early Christians
used this word to include all those who have done or are
doing God's will. A saint, then, is someone who truly
lives the gospel teachings of Christ. The Second Vatican
Council reminds us that all Christians are called by
Baptism to such holiness of life.
