st.sebastian helped many people. he is my favorite saint. he gave me great joy! i think the cool part is that he got shot with arrows and survived being a martyr would stink but he gave up his life to help us. u can see in a lot of saints that they really cared about Jesus srry for a really long seech thing but i think peeps should no!!!
Ever since I started to go to church and was able to learn about saints. I was told that my surname was that of a great saint,now looking at the life of Saint Sebastien I am glad to have a saint name.
i am doing research on sebastian and found him very brave and courageous. I chose him because of his athleticism and i cannot believe that he was shot with arrows and survived!!!
