Modern Saints
Modern saints lived and were canonized within roughly the last two centuries, offering examples of holiness shaped by the particular challenges of contemporary life — industrialization, world wars, secularism, and rapid social change. Their closeness in time makes their witness feel especially immediate to today's believers.
