A little late to the game this month but CCMU’s saint of the month for October is Saint John Paul II!

Saint John Paul II served as pope from 1978 to 2005 and spoke out in favour of nonviolent social activism, human rights, religious freedoms, and full equality for women. He did all this while standing firm in fundamental church doctrine. He also contributed to the dissolution of the Soviet Union and canonized more saints than any other pope before him. SJPII valued the role of youth in the church and took them very seriously.
There is way too much to say about this man! We could go on and on.

Saint John Paul II is the patron saint of Catholic sports and World Youth Day. His feast day was also yesterday!

Saint John Paul II, please pray for all CCMU students.

CCMU’s saint of the month for March is Saint Joseph!

Saint Joseph was married to Mary, mother of Jesus, and was the legal father of Jesus. Joseph decided to stay by Mary’s side when an angel approached him and and told him that Mary was carrying the son of God. Although little is known about Saint Joseph, we do know that he protected Mary and Jesus throughout his lifetime and taught Jesus carpentry.
Saint Joseph is the patron saint of the Universal Church, workers, fathers, and travellers.

Saint Joseph, please pray for all CCMU students, especially those who are juggling work and school.

CCMU’s saint of the month for February is Saint Thomas Aquinas!

Saint Thomas Aquinas was a scholar who defended religious ideals in his writings. He was the first person to discuss theology and philosophy and relate the two.
He was also the greatest of the Scholastic philosophers and is the patron of students and Catholic educational establishments.

Saint Thomas Aquinas, please pray for all CCMU students, especially those with upcoming midterms and assignments.
