A: Saint Anthony's specialty was the nun-chucks.
A: this should cover you. http://www.catholic-pages.com/dir/saints.asp
A: If you think that the Bible is sufficient, you're right; it's sufficient to send you to hell. For only the book of Mormon—the truest and holiest word of God—will get you to the gates of heaven.
My brethren, do not eat that which comes out of your butt; it is an abomination. For a man's spirit is what he eats. Therefore, my brothers, eat healthy so as to not defile thy spirit.
The Changelessness is everything, including that which changes.
Go not the extra mile, but the third mile!
Prepare to live forever.

A: The Virgin Mary is our greatest saint. She is the only saint more powerful than all the forces of hell combined. She specializes in being the mother of all of us, our Advocate, Protectress, and most powerful intercessor. One can obtain her powerful intercession, as well as the intercession of ALL the other saints, by praying the rosary daily. See the following promises, including #13.
The rosary is explained here:
http://www.ewtn.com/Devotionals/Prayers/rosary/how_to.htm
The fifteen promises of Mary to Christians who recite the rosary:
1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary shall receive signal graces.
2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.
3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armor against Hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.
4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will withdraw the hearts of men from the love of the world and its vanities and will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.
5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.
6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries, shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just, he shall remain in the grace of God and become worthy of eternal life.
7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the Sacraments of the Church.
8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death, they shall participate in the merits of the saints in Paradise.
9. I shall deliver from Purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.
10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.
11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.
12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.
13. I have obtained from my Divine Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire Celestial Court during their life and at the hour of death.
14. All who recite the Rosary are my sons, and brothers of my only Son, Jesus Christ.
15. Devotion to my Rosary is a great sign of predestination.
God bless!
