We come today to give thanks to God for the Saints.
For the Saints who tied our shoes and wiped our noses.
For the Saints who taught us to share even when we didn't feel like it.
For the Saints who taught us to wonder at the beauty of a starry night.
For the Saints who expected more of us than we did of ourselves.
For the Saints who sacrificed for our benefit.
For the Saints who pushed us to live out our ideals.
For the Saints who listened when no one else would.
For the Saints who praise God still on another shore.
Praise God for all the Saints!
