I have met saints....

I have met saints here. Not necessarily holy priests or nuns, but lay men and women living in the illuminative state. All of them are under fifty and none of them are Irish. Some are from England, Scotland, Poland, Brazil. They span those in the consecrated life, those who are single and have made celibate vows, and those in the married state. All of them have two things in common...they love God before all people and things, and they know the Indwelling of the Holy Trinity. I understand and have experienced what St. Paul did...the small communities, which are the remnant.
