List of Catholic saints

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by JoeHebda (talk | contribs) at 21:05, 5 May 2016 (→‎1341: create section). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This table is an incomplete list of the people and angels that the Catholic Church recognize as saints. In Catholic theology, all saints enjoy the Beatific vision; it is impossible therefore for any list to enumerate them all. Many of the saints listed here are to be found in the General Roman Calendar, others may also be found in the Roman Martyrology; still others are particular to local places and their recognition does not extend to the larger worldwide church.

Candidates go through the following steps on the way to being declared saints.

Saints acknowledged by the Eastern Orthodox Church are in Category:Christian saints by century and/or Category:Christian saints by nationality.

The list of Catholic saints is ordered chronologically by date of death.
