'We name our children after them at Baptism. We name our churches after them, too. We look to them as models for our own struggling faith. When we need a special favor we tend to go to them. Devotion to saints, with Mary having the highest priority, is a distinguishing feature of Catholicism. This tradition goes back to the early generations of Christianity. Throughout the centuries the church community honored saints.'
