    I was wondering...it mentioned in the video that there would be seven (recent) young American saints and Fr Henry said before he died that he hoped he might be one of them. They also showed pictures, I wonder if this was some kind of Prophecy?

    Its very notice in the lives of the saints, especially recent ones that people are surprised by them, that they say that there kind of holiness is not what they expected. I think perhaps this surprise comes from the idea that we can in some way earn our way to heaven. Whereas the saints tend to see graces as gifts?
