Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Let us pretend you are an animal with horns. Who would you pray to?

Answer: St. Guy of Anderlecht

He was born c. 950. He was born into poverty and raised by religious parents. His memorial is September 12th. He died 1012. And if you were a cow or even a deer you should probably pray everyday.
2. If you are unattractive, who should you be praying to?

Answer: St. Drogo

He was born in 1105. His mother died while in childbirth. His memorial is April 16th. He died c. 1196. For those who may need his mercy or help, remember to keep April 16 open for prayer.
3. If you wanted to make a purse, who would you ask for help?

Answer: St. Brieuc

He was born c.420, was educated in France, and died in 510. So if you need help making a beautiful beaded bag just light a candle on May 1st.
4. Ok, now you have a beautiful garden. Who would you pray to to keep out the moles?

Answer: St. Ulric

He was born in 890 and died in 973. He can be represented by a bishop holding a fish, or giving the fish to a beggar, or even giving a goose leg to a messenger. Remember to pray to him on July 4 to keep your yard independant of moles.
5. If you want to get into the lucrative business of rope making, who should you pray to?

Answer: St. Paul the Apostle

He was born c. 3, he traveled as he preached, and was martyred on c. 65 when he got his head chopped off. So if you are planning to go into ropemaking, remember to pray to him on November 18th.
6. You want to start a new hobby and you decided to become a stamp collector, who should you pray to for guidance?

Answer: St. Gabriel the Archangel

He is the archangel of God and can be represented with a shield or spear. If you want to take up stamp collecting, pray to him on September 29th.
7. You fell asleep and the next morning you woke up with a stiff neck. Who should you pray to for relief?

Answer: St. Ursicinus

He was born in Ireland and died in c. 625. He served as an abbot. For relief for stiff necks, pray to him on December 20th.
8. If you are a skater, who should your parents pray to for no injuries?

Answer: St. Lydwina of Schiedam

She was born in 1380 and was injured during a ice-skating accident. From then on she gave her life to God. She died in 1433. So tell those parents of skaters to pray on April 14th.
9. No one wants to suddenly die, so who should we all pray to?

Answer: St. Aldegundis

She was born c. 633. She was the daughter of two saints. She lived in a convent and died in 684. So that we will not die a sudden death, we should pray to her on January 30th.
10. During a time of war, we should all pray to the patron saint of the soldiers. Which of these is one of the saints associated with the military?

Answer: St. Martin of Tours

Born c. 316, his father was in the military. St. Martin of Tours joined the Roman army, but after discovering Christianity he refused, to fight and was put in prison. He was released and became a hermit. He died in 397. Remember to pray to him on November 11th.

Soldiers clearly have a sense of needing divine protection - the Roman Catholic church alone lists over 30 patrons of the military (in its entirety, or a specific group such as infantry or airmen).
