i think that saint agatha lin she is really petty and the site is awesome i want to be a saint and i want to be just like her she is a catholic like me!xxxxxxxx
We are St. Genevieve's parish in Fresno CA, USA. We are bilingual in English and Chinese. It is good to bring the lives of our precious saints into our Sunday bulletin. I appreciate your website and specifically this information.
As an aside--- our parish is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "The Smallest Catholic Parish in the World" (The parish boundary is only one city block-- a gift from the Bishop of then the Monterey-Fresno Diocese to the Chinese people of Fresno.) We are now in the Diocese of Fresno, CA.
i like this saint i want to be a teacher when i am older and my birthday is on eb 18 thats really cool
