Confirmation patron saint. I chose him because of his bravery‚ his love of God‚ and his revelation by God. I want to always stay by Jesus’s side like he did. I want to be willing to die to be with God. St. John was known as the beloved apostle‚ so I want to be loved by God as well‚ and hope that I can love God. St. John was given the revelation of the symbolic signs of the apocalypse. Like him‚ I want to be trusted with being the bearer of the word of God. John’s early life is mostly unknown. We know that

The saint that I have chosen to be my confirmation saint is St. Paul. I have many reasons for choosing this saint. One of these reasons being that my grandpa’s name was until of course he died. Although my grandfather was not a Catholic he was a Lutheran he was the best man I have ever known and probably will be the best person I will ever know.
