 The Saints 

Saints are individuals of exceptional Holiness who are important in many religions, particularly Christianity.  In some usages, the word "saint" is used more generally to refer to anyone who is a Christian. There are over 10,000 named saints and beati from history, the Roman Martyrology and Orthodox sources, but no definitive head count. The Catholic Church teaches that it does not, in fact, make anyone a saint. Rather, it recognizes a saint. In the Church, the title of Saint refers to a person who has been officially recognized by the Catholic Church, and is therefore to be in heaven.
