Our Litany of Saints -Thus Far

So far we have collected quite a few saints and one venerable to make up our litany of saints

This list of Catholic Saints pertains to mental illness in some fashion. They either had it themselves or were affected by someone suffering with it. In in some cases, the person had a special love and/or cared for those with mental illness.  I still will keep adding more as people submit  the names of their holy friends in heaven.

See the next blog named Neuroses and Sanctity for an explination of these connections to mental illness.
