Idea from Kathy the Carmelite
1. Mary Magdalene. A great sinner of whom much was forgiven, she was granted the privilege of seeing the risen Christ before the others.
2. Catherine of Siena. Feisty and obedient.
3. Mary of Bethany - she chose the better portion.
4. Catherine Laboure Humble, obedient, and the patron of the Miraculous Medal.
5. Blessed Gianna Beretta Molla. She was a physician who chose to continue a pregnancy at risk to her own health. Sadly, she died a few days after the delivery of her child. I would nominate her to be the patron of midwives and labor nurses.

I liked your site a lot! I am in the journey of finding my saint for my confirmation class. There arent too many sites dedicated to saints so your site has indeed helped me in finding the right saint for me. Thanks Many,
