God calls every one of us to become a saint! Holiness is not just for extraordinary people who lived long ago. It is a calling for everyone, including us. Through faith, prayer, love, and everyday choices, we can grow closer to God and follow the path toward eternal life in heaven.

In this course, students will discover what it means to become a saint, explore the Church Triumphant, and learn how the saints in heaven continue to pray for us. They will also discover how the Catholic Church officially recognizes saints through canonization and why their lives offer powerful examples of faith, courage, and holiness.

Through these lessons, students will understand that becoming a saint does not mean being perfect. It means trusting God's mercy, turning away from sin, and choosing to follow Jesus each day.
