Three patron saints:
Matthias – odd man out
Robert Southwell, SJ – poet-martyr
Anthony of Padua, OFM – confirmation name

A member of the holy family:

Joseph - stepfather to Jesus and my stepfather’s name

A guardian angel:
Robert – so named because he is constantly tracking me.

More about Anthony
On one occasion Anthony was dining with heretics. He realized the food put before him was poisoned. The men admitted to attempting to kill him but challenged him to eat the food if he truly believed the words in Mark 16:18 about the followers of Christ: “They shall take up serpents; and if they shall drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them: they shall lay their hands upon the sick, and they shall recover.” Anthony blessed the food, ate it, and suffered no harm. He said to the men, “Give up?”

St. Anthony is one of my favorite Saints, because I really need his help a lot as I so often misplace things, not only a question of age, I always did 😊!
This story fascinated me, Mark 16:18 was a comfort and inspiration for me to overcome sorrows regarding the "vaccine" 💉. But I think it's a sinful challenge of GOd, when some believers in certain evangelical churches in Southern states presumptuously toy around with rattlesnakes during their services...
