Let me ask you – do you ask other brothers and sisters in Christ to pray for you when you have a need? Catholics do not ‘need’ saints to pray for us. We have direct access to the Father, through Christ. However, we take Scripture to heart when it tells us that the prayers of a righteous man availeth much and that those in Christ are not dead. We also look to Revelations, where you can see the Saints in Heaven offering bowls of incense to God, which are the prayers of those on Earth. Catholic prayers to saints is the same – ‘pray’ means ‘to ask’. All we do is ask those Christians that have gone before us to pray for us – the same as when you ask your Elder or Pastor or mom to pray for you. Those in Christ do not die, and their prayers ‘availeth much’.
