SAINTS: Friends in High Places #1

We all need people to look up to; people whose lives embody ideals we hold important and strive to emulate. Every form of human community has heroes. In Australian society, football stars are an obvious example. The Australia Day Honours List awards the outstanding achievements of our citizens. The Church community, too, is full of heroes and heroines.

Who are your friends in high places?

Who are the people you look up to?
