2. Saint Leo the Great

4. Saint Elizabeth of Hungary

November 17

She is the patron saint of hospitals, bakers, nurses, brides, dying children, exiles, homeless people, and widows.

She lived her life according to Saint Francis of Assisi, for he was a role model of hers. She built a hospital, visited inmates daily, and gave to the poor.

5. Saint Cecilia

November 22

The patron saint of musicians, hymns, and poets.

She came from a rich family and was married to a man named Valerian, but wanted to remain pure in marriage. She helped Valerian and his brother become faithful to God and they were eventually baptized by the pope. But, Christianity was illegal and they were all executed, and Cecilia was beheaded.

6. Saint Catherine of Alexandria

November 25

The patron saint of unmarried women, and students.

There is not a lot of information about her, but it is often stated that she was born into royalty and was an educated woman. The emperor began executing Christians, and she went to denounce him. Instead of ordering her execution, he ordered a debate. Her debate converted many listeners, and they were all executed almost immediately. Catherine was imprisoned and tortured. She was martyred in Alexandria, Egypt in 305.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate.
