Saint (Saints)

A saint is a person recognized by a Christian community for their exceptional holiness, virtue, and closeness to God. Canonization, or formal acknowledgment, often follows a life of significant faith and deeds, inspiring others. Saints serve as spiritual role models and intercessors, believed to pray for people on Earth. While the titles and recognition vary among Christian denominations, the core idea is that saints exemplify extraordinary faith and moral character, encouraging believers to pursue similar virtues.
