Dear Saint please pray for Pauline who is suffering from an aggressive type of cancer . She is a lovely lady who always put others before herself and brought her family up single handed. Pauline doesnt deserve this but its in Gods hands.

Dear St. Abdesius, Please pray for me to remain steadfast in faith and not fall a prey to temptations.

I'd like to know why he was made a Saint and not all the others that were also martyred with him. What made him special? Or were they also made Saints? It is unclear. Opens up ones curiosity but doesn't really satisfy it.
